Sazerac

where.the.word.“cocktail”.comes.from.that.

we.frankly.don’t.believe.this.one .However,.

our.cocktail.guides.are.almost.unanimous.

on.the.standard.ingredients.of.a.Sazerac

famous.for.its.Sazeracs,.tasted.too.sweet.

to.us .You.want.a.deinite.bitter.twang.to.

your.Sazerac,.but.anise.and.licorice.lavors.

numb.the.tongue.and.tone.down.the.taste.

of.the.drink,.so.be.careful.with.them .If.

you.really.love.absinthe,.go.ahead,.but.try.

not.to.make.the.drink.too.bitter .You.want.

a.cocktail,.not.a.glass.of.absinthe .Even.

though.it’s.legal,.and.yeah,.we’re.glad.too,.

but.let’s.all.keep.calm

We.found.a.recipe.from.1941.that.calls.for.

sweet.vermouth.instead.of.simple.syrup,.

and.speciies.bourbon.whiskey,.which.is.a.

little.sweeter.than.rye .We.can’t.say.for.

sure,.but.we.think.that.this.recipe.may.

have.been.what.we.were.being.served.at.

the.French.Quarter’s.best-known.bars .It’s.

a.touristy.area,.and.tourists.usually.want.

sweet.lavors.instead.of.bitter.ones .We.

didn’t.experience.the.full.roundhouse.

punch.in.the.tastebuds.that.is.a.Sazerac.

until.we.got.to.Arnaud’s,.and.after.a.

deeper.look.into.our.library.of.cocktail.

guides,.we.think.we.know.why

I t.was.pissing.rain.

but.that.wasn’t.what.we.were.in.town.for

Here’s.a.recipe.for.an.authentic.Sazerac .

We.got.it.from.the.website.of.the.Sazerac.

Company.( www sazerac com ),.and.we.

igure.they.should.know.how.to.do.it.right .

Notice.that.they.don’t.mention.absinthe,.

but.that.doesn’t.mean.you.can’t.use.it.if.

in.New.Orleans,.

the.wettest.Decem-

ber.since.1909.and.

then,.the.next.day,.

oficially.the.wettest.

December.on.record .

We’d.agreed.to.join.our.friend.D .on.a.trip.

to.New.Orleans,.just.for.a.goof,.and.we.

were.staying.in.an.authentic.250-year-old.

brick.and.wrought-iron.house.in.the.

Quarter .Visibility.was.half.a.block.and.the.

sky.was.deep.gray.at.midday,.so.the.only.

thing.to.do.was.pull.up.our.collars.and.

head.down.Royal.Street.in.search.of.a.

Sazerac .Tourists,.our.guidebook.said,.

drink.Hurricanes;.locals.drink.Sazeracs .

Hell,.we.knew.that.already .And.since.

2007,.absinthe.has.been.legal.in.the.U S ,.

so.here,.at.Sazerac.ground.zero,.we.were.

expecting.something.pretty.goddamned.

authentic

By.the.time.we.followed.D .into.the.dining.

room.at.Arnaud’s.for.dinner,.we.had.pretty.

much.given.up .We.ordered.a.Sazerac.

anyway,.of.course,.and.when.it.came,.we.

prepared.for.the.familiar.taste.of.bourbon.

and.sweet.vermouth.and.lifted.the.glass…

continued on page 15

Now,.about.the.hard.stuff:.like.Pernod,.

Herbsaint.was.used.as.a.substitute.for.

absinthe.in.cocktails.after.Repeal.in.1933,.

and.Herbsaint.is.what.they.usually.put.in.

Sazeracs.in.New.Orleans .Makes.sense,.

because.Herbsaint.is.made.in.New.Orleans.

by.the.Sazerac.Company,.which.also.

makes.Peychaud’s.Bitters.(see.A .A .

Peychaud.above) .But.these.days.every-

body’s.so.thrilled.that.absinthe.is.legal.

again.that.they’re.using.it.a.lot,.so.

American.Sazerac.lovers.can.easily.try.the.

original.high-octane.version .We.didn’t.ask.

the.bartender.at.Arnaud’s.which.bitter.

anise.brew.he.used,.but.we’re.betting.it.

was.Herbsaint .(We.also.think.it’s.possible.

that.he.coated.the.glass.with.absinthe.like.

Charles.H .Baker.tells.you.to,.but.we.didn’t.

ask )

POW!.Fuck .Us .Hard .So.that.was.what.a.

Sazerac.was.supposed.to.taste.like .

In.general.terms,.a.Sazerac.is.a.cold.

red-brown.drink.made.with.bourbon.or.rye.

whiskey,.simple.syrup.or.sugar,.the.mixer’s.

choice.of.absinthe.or.Pernod.or.Herbsaint,.

and..Peychaud’s.Bitters,.garnished.with.a.

lemon.zest.and.served.either.neat.or.on.

the.rocks .The.Sazerac.is.supposed.to.be.

one.of.the.oldest.cocktails.in.existence,.

invented.in.1838.by.M .Antoine.Amedie.

Peychaud,.and.it.started.out.as.just.cognac.

or.brandy.with.a.shot.of.his.own.bitters .

One.interesting.story.is.that.the.drink.was.

mixed.in.a.double-ended.jigger.that.was.

known.at.the.time.as.a.“coquetier,”.and.

the.pronunciation,.like.most.words.spoken.

in.New.Orleans.(can.you.say.“Tchoupitou-

las.Street”?.Yeah,.that’s.what.we.thought,.

go.wipe.your.mouth),.warped.and.

morphed.until.it.came.out.“cocktail ”.We’ve.

heard.so.many.different.stories.about.

We.started.at.Napoleon.House,.moved.on.

to.Broussard’s,.hit.one.bar.after.another.

for.Sazeracs,.and.wondered.what.the.hell .

Were.we.getting.it.wrong,.or.were.they?.

We.kept.getting.drinks.that,.except.for.the.

lemon.zest.and.the.squat.thick.glass,.could.

not.be.told.from.a.Manhattan .Bourbon.

whiskey,.with.something.sweet.in.it .

Understand,.we.like.Manhattans.just.ine,.

General.consensus.on.the.cocktail.blogs.is.

that.using.absinthe.instead.of.Herbsaint.or.

Pernod.makes.the.drink.a.little.too.bitter,.

but.the.reason.we.liked.Arnaud’s.Sazerac.

the.best.is.that.the.others.we.tried,.even.

the.one.at.Napoleon.House,.which.is.
