Bäsk
| Type | Liquor |

| Origin | Sweden |
| Ingredients | Wormwood |
Bäsk is a Swedish-style liquor flavored with wormwood ("malört" in Swedish) or anise[1], preferably served warm. Sweden is one of the few countries that has never banned absinthe or other wormwood-flavored liquors.[2] Bäsk is an old alternative spelling of the word besk which means "bitter".
In the United States, the Chicago-based brand Jeppson's Malört is one of the most well-known versions of the liquor.[3]
In Sweden, the most popular brand is Bäska droppar by O.P. Anderson Distillery.
Warm Bäsk is said to be good for digestion,[4] and therefore is traditionally associated with fatty foods.[citation needed]
