The Sazerac Coctail :  OFFICIAL COCKTAIL OF NEW ORLEANS

This is an absolutely exquisite cocktail. As you sip it, you come across layer after layer of flavor -- the
warmth and glowing burn of the rye, effused with the flavors of spice and honey, the bite of the bitters
balanced with the sweetness of the sugar, with the subtle yet complex flavor of the anise underneath and
the perfume of the lemon oil from the twist feel like a symphony inside your mouth. This is also a drink that
warms up well, revealing even more flavors. Sip it very slowly. Savor it. Take your time with it.

editor:  Best enjoyed at the newly reopened Roosevelt Hotel in the landmark Sazerac Bar.

Our background photo for this page is  a favorite bar for both locals and
visitors. Lafitte's Blacksmith shop is one of the oldest structures in New
Orleans. It is thought to have been build between 1722 and 1732.
Between 1772 and 1791, the property is believed to have been used by the
privateer Jean Lafitte  as a New Orleans base for his Barataria Bay
smuggling operation.              941 Bourbon St
SOUTHERN
COMFORT is a fruit,
spice and whiskey [1]
flavored liqueur made from
neutral spirits and produced
since 1874—though not
always by the modern
formula. The brand was
created by bartender Martin
Wilkes Heron in New Orleans,
when he wanted to make a
better tasting whiskey. It was
a favorite of Janis Joplin, who
was born near the Louisiana
- Texas border.
