- Muddle the sugar and bitters to a paste in an old-fashioned glass. Fill the glass with ice, add the bourbon and stir for 12 to 15 seconds with a bar spoon or long-handled spoon.
- In a second old-fashioned glass, add the absinthe, swirl to coat the inside of the glass, then discard the excess absinthe. Strain the bourbon mixture into the absinthe-rinsed glass.
- Serve without ice, neat. Garnish with a lemon peel.

Steps:
- Mix 1 teaspoon sugar, a few dashes each Peychaud's and angostura bitters and a splash of water in a shaker. Add 2 ounces rye, fill with ice and stir. Rinse a chilled old-fashioned glass with anise-flavored liqueur (such as absinthe). Strain into the glass; garnish with a lemon twist.
SAZERAC
Paul Gustings, the bartender at Broussard's in New Orleans, is nothing if not exacting when it comes to his Sazerac. "It has to be Old Overholt," he said of his choice of rye. And not the standard two ounces, but an ounce and three-quarters. The glass must be rinsed with the anise-flavored liqueur Herbsaint, not absinthe. And, he said, "I use much more Peychaud's that others do: 11 dashes." That's only, however, if you're halfway through the bottle of bitters. If you've just opened it, it's 13, according to Mr. Gustings, who says the dashes are smaller at that point; if you're near the end, make it 10 dashes. The extra dose of bitters gives the drink a rosier glow than most Sazeracs, and a very dry finish.

Steps:
- Chill a rocks glass. Meanwhile, in a mixing glass three-quarters filled with ice, mix the rye, simple syrup and bitters and stir until chilled, about 30 seconds.
- Pour the Herbsaint into the chilled rocks glass and rotate until the liqueur coats the inside of the glass. Strain the contents of the mixing glass into the rocks glass. Rub the lemon twist along the rim of the rocks glass, twist over the drink and discard.

SAZERAC
Rye is absolutely vital in a Sazerac, among the most supernaturally alluring of drinks and frequently a bartender's favorite. Peychaud's bitters, which are made by the Sazerac Company in Louisiana, are asked for here, and are lighter than the more commonly found Angostura variety. If you can't get your hands on some, try using your own favorite bitters. (The New York Times)
