I love a Sazerac, but I've always made them by stirring over ice and then straining into an ice cold glass. Part of the appeal (to me anyway) is the undiluted booziness 🀀

If you haven't, try a Vieux Carre! It's similar, also quite boozy, and IMO definitely benefits from ice to bring it back in line.

Same here! Bit of a Sazerac snob here, but mine always come stirred over ice and stained into a cold glass to avoid further dilution. I would also garnish with a lemon peel, where OP's seems to have an orange peel.

Looks good, enjoy!

It's probably not possible here since it's bar-made (unless... are you the bartender?), but a Sazerac is one of the drinks where I'd always love to know the recipe, since there's so much variation.

No I'm not the bartender. I know there's absinthe in it.
