Pernod is a well-known brand of anise-flavored liqueur. It originated in France and has a long history that dates back to the early 19th century. Pernod is often associated with the classic French apéritif called ”pastis.”

Pernod is made using a blend of herbs and spices, with the primary flavor coming from star anise. The exact recipe is a closely guarded secret, but it typically includes ingredients such as anise, fennel, and various aromatic plants.

Pernod is known for its distinct licorice-like flavor and its ability to create a refreshing and invigorating drink when mixed with water. When water is added to Pernod, it turns cloudy, a phenomenon known as the ”louche effect.” This occurs due to the essential oils and other components in the liqueur reacting with the water.

Pernod is traditionally served by pouring a measure of the liqueur into a glass and adding cold water to taste. The addition of water allows the flavors to open up and creates a refreshing and enjoyable drink. Some people also choose to add ice cubes or garnish it with a twist of lemon.
