Instructions

This innovative twist on the classic Sazerac cocktail blends the aromatic complexity of Earl Grey tea with the sweet, citrus notes of Cointreau, complemented by the spiciness of rye whiskey and the unique addition of honey and peach bitters. It's a symphony of flavors that pays homage to the original while offering something delightfully new. Ingredients: - 2 oz Rye whiskey - 1/4 oz Cointreau - 1/4 oz Honey (as a substitute for simple syrup) - 2 dashes Peach Bitters - 1 dash Absinthe (for rinsing) - 1 Earl Grey tea bag - Lemon twist (for garnish) Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing a strong Earl Grey tea infusion; steep the tea bag in about 2 oz of hot water for 5 minutes, then remove the tea bag and allow the tea to cool to room temperature. 2. In a mixing glass, combine the cooled Earl Grey tea, rye whiskey, Cointreau, honey, and peach bitters. 3. Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir until well-chilled. 4. Take a chilled Old-Fashioned glass and rinse it with absinthe, discarding the excess. 5. Strain the cocktail mixture into the prepared Old-Fashioned glass over a large ice cube. 6. Express a lemon twist over the drink and place it on the edge of the glass as garnish.
