Sazerac cocktail with ice and orange peel garnish beside a Bulleit Rye whiskey bottle

Rye Sazerac

Brandy was the original spirit at the heart of this cocktail, but nowadays Bulleit Rye is the ideal spirit base for this dramatic, New Orleans-inspired mix of tones and flavors.

What you’ll need

  • 1.3 oz. Bulleit Rye

  • 0.25 oz. absinthe

  • 1 cube sugar

  • 3 dashes Peychaud's bitters

Preparation

  1. Muddle sugar and bitters, add the rye and stir with ice.

  2. Strain into an old-fashioned glass that's been chilled and rinsed with absinthe.
