This rum-based spin on the quintessential New Orleans cocktail, the rye-or brandy-based Sazerac, is named for the Big Easy neighborhood where the drink was supposedly created.
Rinse a chilled rocks glass with the absinthe, then pour it out. Fill a pint glass with ice. Add all of the remaining ingredients except the twist and stir well. Strain into the rocks glass. Pinch the twist over the drink, rub it around the rim and discard.
