Cocktail = Sazerac

"A New Orleans classic and the oldest known American Cocktail, The Sazerac has pre-civil war roots and is named for the Sazerac de Forge et Fils brand of Cognac. It is traditionally served with Peychaud's bitters, although some bars, including our's, are now making their own bitters. If you don't have Absinthe, you can substitute Green Chartreuse." -Corey
