- Chill a rocks glass by rinsing or spritzing it with Herbsaint.
- Mix the remaining ingredients over ice and strain them into the prepared glass without adding ice, similar to how you would serve a Sazerac.
- Twist an orange peel to release its oils, then fold it into a pouch that clips inside the glass.
- Place a star anise in the center as a garnish.
