- Fill a rocks glass with ice to chill it and set it aside.
- In a mixing glass, muddle the sugar with the Peychaud's bitters.
- Add the rye whiskey and ice, then stir until well chilled.
- Tip the ice and meltwater out of the serving glass, add the absinthe and roll it around to coat the inside. Pour out the excess.
- Strain the drink into the absinthe-rinsed glass.
- Twist the lemon peel over the glass to release its oils, then drop it in or discard it.
