Pernod is made from the essence of star anise, a fruit that grows on trees in northern Vietnam and southern China. The ethanol extracted from this essential oil is blended with essential oils distilled from other herbs and spices. Pernod's secret formula includes mint, added for its cooling and digestive properties, and coriander, for its subtle, heady flavor. Pernod is different from other anise-based spirits in that its flavor and subtle bouquet come from the distillation of star anise. Pastis, on the other hand, is produced by maceration and includes licorice as one of the main flavoring agents.
