Sazerac - Cocktail Recipe

Wondering how to make Sazerac? Cocktail Builder will help!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 tsp of Pernod (alt: absinthe)
  • 1/2 tsp of simple syrup
  • 1 dash of Peychaud Bitters
  • 2 oz of rye whiskey

Instructions

Coat chilled old fashioned glass with Absinthe or its substitute (Herbsaint, Pernod, ...). Pour out most of what remains, perhaps leaving a small puddle in the bottom of the glass. Add bitters and syrup. You can use a single sugar cube instead of simple syrup, in which case you would now muddle this to dissolve. Add Whiskey. Garnish with a twist of lemon peel.
