This is the classical New Orleans cocktail.
Ingredients
Crushed ice
1 teaspoon absinthe, Pernod, or Herbsaint liqueur
Ice cubes
1 teaspoon simple syrup
1 1/2 ounces rye or bourbon whiskey
3 dashes Peychaud's Bitters
1 lemon peel twist
Simple Syrup Preparation:
Use an old-fashioned glass that had been chilled.
Add the Herbsaint, absinthe, or Pernod to the glass; swirl it around to coat the entire sides and bottom of the glass. Discard the excess.
In a shaker, add some ice cubes, sugar, rye whiskey, and bitters. Shake gently for about 30 seconds; strain into the prepared old-fashioned glass.
Twist lemon peel over the drink and then place in the drink.
Note: use absinthe at your own risk. I know it's again legal, but I wouldn't go there. I use Pernod instead.
I hope those who try it enjoy it.

It sounds strong.
A really great cotail if you can find the ingredients.
I'll take two.
