A Good Doctor’s Lagniappe 
 Sinner's Sazerac 
“Just a little somethin' we have here in Louisiana. Little parlor trick, don't worry.”
30.43% ABV | Yield: 3.08 fl oz | Themed Cocktail, Fandom Cocktail. Classic, Pre-Prohibition, New Orleans . Improved Cocktail, 19th Century 
2 oz or 60ml Brandy 
2 tsp or 10 ml demerara syrup 
3-5 dashes Peychaud's Aromatic Cocktail Bitters 
1 Lemon twist 
Express oils from lemon peel and regal stir*, strain into chilled neat glass that you have rinsed with or spritzed with absinthe verte. 
Drink your sins and follow with 
Retour de la Mort 
“-I HOPE you’re SATISFIED! But if you ain’t-- don’t blame me...” 
15.51% ABV | Yield: Approx 1.5 fl oz |  Themed Cocktail, Fandom Cocktail, Champagne Cocktail, Chaser/Back, Shooter
Soak sugar cube with absinthe verte in shot glass or pony glass; To boost color, 1-2 drops of Midori can be used as well. 
Pour brut-style sparkling wine in and serve on a tray next to Sinner’s Sazerac. 
 •Lagniappe[lan-yap] is "a little something extra". Usually, its meant like a little extra something good, a bonus, you know, something to sweeten the deal. What’s sweeter than a spoonful of absinthe and some sugar? 
•Facilier is clearly a Cognac Sazerac guy, I just don’t see the rye version in his hand. But, he's a fraudster. So we use can use American Brandy. Honestly, E&J is ubiquitous in America for barely $10 a bottle, so go with E&J Grand Blue for a sweeter drink, and E&J XO for a easier to sip, “smoother” drink. Alternatively, ignore me and use your favorite Cognac -- I like Ansac VS, the cheap Raynal VSOP blend is amazing, Martell VSOP, and honestly everything I’ve had from ABK6. Hennessy leans more on a bitter orange note than I prefer. Literally, this is a drink designed to feature the spirit and just give a little je ne sais quoi. Pick a brandy you’d like to drink, not just a bottle that had a huge marketing budget.
•The back is essentially Death In The Afternoon scaled down, hence the name, which most literally reads “Return of Death” i.e. -- A Death-Back. Remember, 'brut-style' -- no AOC Champagne required. An extra dry Cava is preferable to a Prosecco here.  Remember -- drink the spirits you like the way you like to drink them, but when it comes to champagne cocktails, you really don’t need to spend much. Its a vehicle, the things you modify with are the drivers. 
For a drink with a sidecar, honestly, it’s totally up to you if you shot the back or if you alternate between sips of the main drink and the shooter. Genuinely, give it a go however you like. I tend to do the latter, and its a great contrast here, but symbolically, shooting the champagne back is more accurate to symbolize how the song goes. 
This is dedicated in part to Doug Ankrah, who created the most defining champagne sidecar drink in the Pornstar Martini. RIP[REST IN PORN] my good dude.
*Regal stir or regal shake is to include a piece of zest in the stage of cocktail creation wherein you are introducing aeration, chilling and dilution to the cocktail. This is essentially lightly muddling it and releases the flavonoids stored in the lipid cells, just like when you twist a piece over a drink -- but this integrates them with more nuance on the tongue as opposed to primarly affecting aroma. 
Why the regal stir for this version? Why -- he’s a royal on his mother’s side, you know.

Language of Flowers: Gentian
Every day has its flower in the language of flowers. The flower for today, November 27, is Gentian, which signifies loveliness. Image above from Wikipedia. The genus was named after King Gentius of Illyria (180-167 B.C.), the last Illyrian king, who may have discovered the medicinal benefits of Gentian. The plant was primarily used for cleaning wounds and to stimulate appetite. Many beverages…

New Orleans Cocktail of the Month for November - The Sazerac
The Sazerac was invented in 1838 by apothecary Antoine Peychaud in his shop on Royal Street. It may have evolved over time – the cognac it was originally made with replaced by rye whiskey, the swirl of absinthe replaced by Herbsaint and Peychaud’s special bitters – but the Sazerac remains one of the quintessential tastes of the Big Easy. So much so that it was declared New Orleans’ Official Cocktail in 2008!

From Dm's with @ducklight
The mentioned chai liqueur is just a quick infusion of chai spices into vodka, then diluted with vodka until balanced. I put together the chai spices as well, but I can't remember what I used at all.
Anyways.
Tumblr media
1oz applejack
0.5oz chai mix
0.5oz rich syrup (2:1)
0.5oz lime.
Shake, strain into a glass. Top with peychaud's bitters.
Tastes like apple cider, but the chai is still too strong. The lime helps bring out the apple, and the rich syrup makes it dreadfully thick. It still needs work, but I think a better-tasting chai liqueur could work.

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE COCKTAILS
Louis de Pointe du Lac
This riff on the Sazerac, a classic New Orleans cocktail, adds sweet fig and fiery ginger to reflect the inner turmoil of a conflicted new vampire.
2oz rye whiskey
.75oz fig liqueur
.25oz ginger syrup
4 dashes Peychaud's bitters
1/4 tsp absinthe, for rinse
Lemon peel, for garnish
Combine whiskey, fig liqueur, ginger syrup, and bitters in a mixing glass with ice and stir well for about 1 minute.
Add absinthe to a cocktail glass and swirl it around to thinly coat the inside of the glass. Discard or drink any extra drops.
Strain the mixing glass contents into the cocktail glass, discarding the ice.
Express a lemon peel over the drink and garnish with the peel.
(More IWTV cocktails to come!)
