Classic New Orleans, just mentioning this cocktail conjures the sounds of James Booker, Sugar Boy Crawford and the like. The preparation rivals the taste and comfort of the cocktail. The next time you are in the Big Easy, spend a little time bar hopping for Sazerac. Entertainment is sure to follow.

[email protected]This cocktail is really good. I'm not usually a fan of rye whiskey, but it works really well in this drink. The absinthe rinse is a nice touch and adds a bit of complexity.
