Instructions

  1. In a separate glass, let the sugar cube sit in the cognac and Peychaud's bitters until the sugar has dissolved.
  2. Pour the absinthe into a rocks glass, add about 1 oz of crushed ice and stir so the absinthe coats the glass.
  3. Add about 1 oz of crushed ice to the cognac mixture and stir.
  4. Tip the ice out of the absinthe glass.
  5. Strain the cognac mixture into the absinthe-coated glass.
  6. Garnish with the lemon peel.
  7. Serve right away.
