atp2112 , 3 months ago I'm partial to the New Orleans cocktails. If I'm making a Sazerac, I like this variation. On the whole, though, my favorite has to be the Vieux Carré 3/4 oz rye 3/4 oz cognac 3/4 oz sweet vermouth 1/3 oz Bénédictine D.O.M 2 dashes Peychaud's bitters 1 dash Angostura bitters Optional absinthe rinse (I usually keep some absinthe in an atomizer because I refuse to throw out perfectly good absinthe) Serve in a rocks glass with a lemon twist At the same time, though, my love for bitter sometimes draws me to a Bonsoni: 2 oz Carpano Antica vermouth 1/2 oz Fernet Branca
