Cook's Notes

In keeping with tradition, we prepared this cocktail using two glasses: one for mixing, one for serving. But the drink can also be made in a cocktail shaker and then strained into a Pernod-splashed glass.

    peychaud's bitters is the key ingredient to the sazerac. traditionally you only squeeze a swathe of lemon peel over the drinks surface and rub on the lip of the glass.
