This riff on a classic Sazerac cocktail substitutes Remedy Cocktail Company’s Noir bitters for Peychaud’s bitters and burnt sugar syrup for Demerara syrup. The color of the cocktail goes from a reddish hue to a pleasant amber color. Dangerously sippable this cocktails spicy rye notes are rounded by the absinthe rinse and the lightly smokey fruits and black walnut from the noir bitters leave a pleasant finish on the palate.
