Time 3m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cube sugar
3 dashes Peychaud's Bitters
2 ounces rye whiskey (to taste)
1/4 ounce ​absinthe or anise liqueur (to rinse)
Garnish: lemon twist

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Chill an old-fashioned glass by filling it with ice. Let it sit while you prepare the rest of the drink.
  • In a mixing glass, soak the sugar cube with the bitters and muddle to crush the cube .
  • Add the rye whiskey and stir.
  • Discard the ice in the chilled glass. Rinse it with absinthe: Pour a small amount into the glass, swirl it around, then discard the liquid.
  • Pour the whiskey mixture into the absinthe-rinsed glass.
  • Gently squeeze the lemon twist over the drink to release its essence. Traditionalists typically discard it and rarely drop it into the glass; lay it on the rim as a garnish if you like. Serve and enjoy.
