Sazerac

2 oz. rye whiskey
3 dashes Peychaud's bitters
1 sugar cube (or a teaspoon of simple syrup)
Absinthe (enough to rinse a rocks glass)
Lemon peel for garnish

Chill a rocks glass with ice.  In another rocks glass, muddle the sugar with the Peychaud's bitters.  Once the sugar is dissolved, add the rye whiskey and stir thoroughly.  Empty the ice from your chilled rocks glass and rinse the inside with absinthe (discard the surplus.)  Pour the bitters/sugar/whiskey concoction into the absinthe-rinsed glass.  Garnish with a peel of lemon.  Enjoy!
