Are these just anise flavored or do they have wormwood in them?

You can buy wormwood in the US, the only thing they stop is the Absinthe.

You can legally buy everything to make it.

But i doubt that the mints have extract of wormwood.

My neighbor has the good Absinthe. He goes on business trips to Belgium about 3-4 times a year and his bar is stocked full of the foreign schtuff. He brings it over on carry on every time and never has any problems.
