The La Louisiane cocktail is a twist on the Vieux Carré, and it's just as potent. The only difference? In place of cognac, you'll find rye whiskey mixed with other ingredients to give this delightful drink its signature flavor profile!

Ingredients

2 oz (4 tbsp) Rye whiskey
3/4 oz (1.5 tbsp) Sweet vermouth
1/2 oz (1 tbsp) Benedictine liqueur
3 dashes (1 tsp) Absinthe
3 dashes Peychaud's bitters
1 Maraschino cherry, for garnish

Directions

Pour the rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, Benedictine, absinthe, and Peychaud's bitters into a mixing glass. Add ice.
Stir well until chilled.
Strain it into a chilled coupe glass.
Garnish with the maraschino cherry. Serve and enjoy.

Recipe Note
