Tonight we made Sazaracs in honor of the 75th anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition.
I have been wanting to make this classic cocktail for a long time and finally got around to rounding up the ingredients and coming home with all the supplies.
You need Pernod (or other anise-flavored liquor), Peychaud's bitters, Angostura bitters, rye whiskey, simple sugar and a lemon twist. I used the recipe from Saveur, a favorite magazine, but recipes abound on the Internet.
I thin the best part is the wonderful lemony-licorice smell, so don't omit the lemon twist! I drank several rounds and I have to say this is a wonderful keeper of a drink.!
