Advent Calendar - Sazarac

Rye whiskey wraps your troubles up into a bright blue package
Ties a bow around it, oh, boy
Just throw it on the pile in the corner
See, you're not alone in not being alone tonight, but...

I love a sazarac, and I've never successfully made one.  So I scoured the internet and found a recipe that sounded good and altered it a bit!  It was good!

Fill a shaker with ice, and place 2 demerara sugar cubes on top.  Then add 3 oz Bulleit Rye, 4 dashes Peychaud’s bitters, 2 dashes Aromatic Bitters, and about 2 teaspoons Absinthe.  Let that sit while you clean the dust off your favorite stemless cocktail glasses and cut 2 piece of lemon peel (with a potato peeler).  Shake the heck out of it and serve.


We chose to enjoy these with an old broadway record of Christmas songs, and a lunch of cheese and hummus.
