Instructions

Description: The Dirty South Sazerac is a robust, full-flavored cocktail that infuses the classic New Orleans Sazerac with a bold, smoky Southern twist. Featuring rye whiskey and a hint of grilled peach syrup, combined with the traditional absinthe rinse, this drink embodies the spirit of the South with a nod to Creole sophistication. The smoked salt rim adds an extra layer of complexity, ensuring each sip is a harmonious blend of sweet, savory, and smoky elements. Ingredients: - 2 oz Rye Whiskey - 1/4 oz Grilled Peach Syrup (homemade or store-bought) - 4 dashes Peychaud's Bitters - Absinthe (for rinsing) - Smoked Sea Salt (for rimming the glass) - Lemon peel (for garnish) - Ice Cubes Instructions: 1. Begin by chilling an old-fashioned glass. 2. Rim the chilled glass with smoked sea salt by wetting the edge with a lemon wedge and dipping it in the salt. 3. Pour a small amount of absinthe into the glass. Swirl the absinthe around to coat the inside of the glass, then discard the excess liquid. 4. In a mixing glass, combine the rye whiskey, grilled peach syrup, and Peychaud's Bitters with ice. 5. Stir the mixture well until it's adequately chilled. 6. Strain the stirred concoction into the prepared old-fashioned glass with the absinthe rinse and smoked salt rim. 7. Express the oils of a lemon peel over the drink by twisting it over the surface, then drop the peel into the glass as a garnish. Serve the Dirty South Sazerac immediately, inviting the drinker to savor the smoky, sweet complexity that pays homage to the rich culinary and cocktail traditions of the South.
