How to Make a Sazerac / Cocktail Recipe - Inkwell / The Simple Man

The Sazerac. It's probably my favorite cocktail. Chances are if you catch me sitting over at Inkwell, I have a Sazerac cocktail in my hand. This drink is simple and just so classic. In fact, some argue it's the oldest American cocktail with its origins dating back to 1800's New Orleans. Rye whiskey, Peychaud's bitters, sugar...all in a chilled glass with an Absinthe rinse. I prefer a twist of orange to the lemon. Try it and let us know what you think.
