Recipe 

• 1/2 oz Simple Syrup
• 3 Dashes Peychaud bitters
• Absinthe (a small amount to wash a glass)
• Lemon Peel
• 2 oz Rye Whiskey (I prefer Sazerac Rye but any spicy Rye Whiskey will be good)

1. Freeze an old fashioned glass or fill it with ice and water to chill
2. In a mixing glass, add ice, bitters, simple syrup, whiskey, and stir (do not shake) until chilled and diluted
3. To your chilled old fashioned glass, add a small amount of Absinthe to coat and pour any excess out
4. Pour cocktail into Absinthe washed glass and express oils from lemon peel, discard peel

This is the perfect libation to sip on while investigating voodoo murders and roaming the streets of New Orleans in Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers.
