Instructions

A classic New Orleans cocktail that embodies the essence of sophistication and tradition. This distinguished drink combines the robust flavors of rye whiskey, absinthe, aromatic bitters, and a touch of sweetness from a sugar cube. Ingredients: - 2 oz rye whiskey - 1/4 oz absinthe - 1 sugar cube - 3 dashes Peychaud's bitters - Lemon peel, for garnish - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. Begin by chilling an old-fashioned glass by filling it with ice and setting it aside. 2. In a separate mixing glass, muddle the sugar cube with a few drops of water until it dissolves completely. 3. Add the rye whiskey and Peychaud's bitters to the mixing glass, then fill it with ice. 4. Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds to properly chill and dilute the drink. 5. Discard the ice from the chilled old-fashioned glass, and rinse the inside with absinthe, allowing it to coat the glass. Discard any excess absinthe. 6. Strain the whiskey mixture from the mixing glass into the rinsed old-fashioned glass. 7. Twist the lemon peel over the drink to release its oils, then use it as a garnish. Optionally, you can rub the rim of the glass with the lemon peel for added aroma. 8. Serve the Sazerac straight up and enjoy its harmonious blend of flavors. Cheers!
