A Spontaneous Libation for your Consideration

Sazerac

Posted by Dan. Created by Leon Lamothe, Sazerac Coffee House, New Orleans, LA.
3 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup (or up to 3/4 oz to taste)
5 ds Peychaud's Bitters (to taste)
1 rinse Absinthe
1 twst Lemon zest (as garnish)
Instructions

Pack lowball glass with cracked ice. In a second lowball or mixing glass, stir ingredient with ice, empty serving glass and rinse with Absinthe, strain and serve without ice. May also be served in a flute or cocktail glass

Notes

This stout recipe can withstand liberal substitution of other spirits, including brandy, other whiskeys, and flavorful rums. Some use a sugar cube muddled with bitters (in the style of an Old Fashioned). A typical 1.5 oz pour will result in a rather small cocktail.

History

Chris McMillan uses 2 oz rye, 2 bsp simple, 2 dashes, and 2 bsp Herbsaint.

    Gin celery lemonade basically but somehow works extremely well, espectially with fresh ingredients

    Made with Punt e Mes. If these ingredients sound good to you, you'll probably be into it

    Zach was in from New York for a guest shift that week. I was doing a guest shift the following week at Backbar as part of my book launch party for my second book (Drunk & Told: A Boston Cocktail Book), and one of my coworkers who was dating a Backbar bartender at the time told me that I needed to stop to see Zach (otherwise, I might not have gone in back-to-back weeks).

    This is a very enjoyable cocktail... I think Celery bitters are often overlooked.
