  1. No you cannot legally bring it. The minimum age limit is 21 to bring alcohol into the US. Even then, it has to be legal in the state where you arrive. Absinthe is illegal in the US, so you could not bring that back no matter what your age or where you arrive. The states have individual liquor laws which may include additional restrictions.

    The information is available on the customs website:  http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/vacati...


  2. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to posses alcohol while in the US.

  3. no

  4. It's illegal to buy or possess alcohol , if you are under twenty one years of age.

  5. check with the airline to make sure, but I think it is.  I wanted to bring a bottle back w/me from Scotland and was told NO.
