That alcohol is anise-flavored, quite the same as greek ouzo, and one's supposed to dilute it with water before drinking (water ratio is subject to many quarrels) xD I'll never understand how my fellow comrades drink this, water or not.

[@crezychameau]

For those actually wondering what Ricard tastes like, it's supposed to be diluted in about 3 times its volume of cold water, and it's kinda like a lightly spiced aniseed sirup. If you drink it undiluted it's just too much sugar and flavor of aniseed and licorice. Would feel kind of like Jägermeister but with a different flavor

[@AzPea]

Dear Mr Boris, this is just to let you know that you REAAAAAALLY should put water with Ricard (not to much, or you will drown it.) and I fear you may have tasted the worst version of the Quiche Lorraine you could find my friend ! THank you for visiting, hope you had a great time !

I have the same bread, mustard, cheese, blinis and crepes at home, the cakes are pretty common and the prepared meals are really common to, Ricard ( the alcohol ) is well known but most of the time only drinkers by 50yo southern guys. The uncommon stuff was the crab and this strange mix of meat.

As a French, it was both fun and painful to see XD ! Fun, and really satisfying to see Boris enjoying some of these products I use everyday (especially that white bread he bought, I eat the exact same brand and product everyday), painful... For a lot of things XD ! Ricard (or Pastis, those two names are for the same thing, it's just two different brands who used to be in direct competition with eachother before Ricard grew big enough to actually buy the Pastis company, as far as I recall) is supposed to be consumed sliiiiightly diluted with water (the exact proportion is known to be easy to mess up, something like 11 or 12 parts Pastis and 1 part water), which will make it turn opaque (even though it's transparent when you pour it in your glass). It's an aniseed aperitif that is very typically associated with South-Eastern France, especially with Marseille, something that you get out when you invite your friends over to enjoy a good lunch with a few drinks on a sunny day. It can be found in grocery stores pretty much everywhere in France as far as I know. The quiche lorraine is obviously supposed to be eaten warm, AT THE VERY LEAST you should have microwaved it (if possible, warmed in an actual oven). And believe it or not, France may be known for the wine, but when it comes to alcoholic drinks, many people will open a bottle of beer rather than wine !
