Ingredients
1 sugar cube
2 1/2 ounces rye whiskey
3 dashes Peychaud's bitters
2 dashes Angostura bitters
Dash absinthe
1 piece lemon peel
Directions
- Chill one old fashioned glass and use another for mixing (this is the tradition, as opposed to a mixing glass or shaker). Place the sugar cube in the glass for mixing. Add a couple of drops of water and muddle the sugar cube until it is a paste. Pour in the whiskey and both bitters. Add ice cubes and stir.
- Into the chilled glass, add a dash of absinthe and swirl it around the glass until it is coated; discard any excess. Strain the whiskey mixture into the coated glass. Squeeze the lemon peel over the drink and drop it in as a garnish. Serve immediately.
