From: HungryMonster.com
Serves: 1
 

Ingredients:

1/2 teaspoon Pernod (or other Absinthe substitute)
1 dash Peychaud bitters
1 teaspoon Simple Syrup
2 ounces Rye Whiskey
 

Preparation:

Coat chilled old fashioned glass with Absinthe substitute (Herbsaint, Pernod...). Pour out most of what remains, perhaps leaving a small puddle in the bottom of the glass. Add bitters and syrup. You can use a single sugar cube instead of simple syrup, in which case you would now muddle this to dissolve. Add Whiskey Serve with a swizzle stick and/or straw.

This drink is traditionally served "neat" (no ice) You may want to adjust the amount of Pernod and/or Sugar to your tastes. Pernod can take a little bit getting used to.
