Sazerac

A Sazerac is a classic cocktail originating from New Orleans, typically made with rye whiskey or Cognac. It features a blend of bitters, sugar, and a splash of absinthe or Herbsaint to add aromatic complexity. The drink is stirred with ice, strained into a glass, and often garnished with a lemon peel. Known for its rich, aromatic, and slightly sweet profile, the Sazerac is celebrated as one of America's oldest cocktails, embodying a balance of robust spirits and aromatic spices.
