Recipe

Ingredients:     

Cocktail 

o ¼ ounce Pernod Absinthe

Supérieure

o ½ teaspoon cold water

o 1 dash Angostura bitters

o 1 dash Peychaud’s bitters

o 1 ¼ ounces Heaven’s Door

Straight Rye whiskey

o 1 ¼ ounces Hennessy VS cognac

Garnish

o lemon peel

Method:

1. Swirl absinthe to coat the

inside of an Old Fashioned

glass and discard the excess.

2. Combine sugar, bitters, and

water in a mixing glass and stir

to dissolve the sugar.

3. Add ice and spirits then

stir to chill.

4. Strain into the prepared

glass.

5. Add a single large ice cube.

6. Rub the lemon peel along

the rim of the glass and drop it

in as a garnish.

Remarks:

Originally made with a cognac

by Sazerac-de-Forge. Over time

rye whiskey has also become

popular. Rather than have to

choose, we decided to use both.

Laissez les bon temps rouler.
