Michael Carper's Sazerac Cocktail

0

A Sazerac variation that splits the base between cognac, bourbon and rye. Peychaud's, Angostura and lemon bitters give it spice and a citrus lift, and an absinthe-coated glass adds a faint note of anise.

Instructions

  1. Fill a rocks glass with ice, pour in the absinthe and top with water. Leave it to stand while you mix the drink.
  2. Put the cognac, bourbon, rye whiskey, sugar cane syrup and all three bitters in a mixing vessel with ice. Throw the drink by pouring it back and forth between two vessels until it is cold and diluted.
  3. Empty the glass of ice, water and absinthe, leaving only a thin coating of absinthe on the inside.
  4. Strain the drink into the coated glass.
  5. Garnish with a lemon zest twist and discard it.
