This week we’re sipping one of my favorite whiskey cocktails, the sazerac. A few months back we had the chance to review Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Rye, one of their newer expressions, and so we decided to use it this week to this to make this classic. The Jack Daniel’s Sazerac is a very whiskey forward drink with a great absinthe finish so if you haven’t had one before, here’s a great time to give it a try.
Cheers!
