History:
The story of the Sazerac starts in the mid-19th century with a cognac brand named Sazerac-de-Forge et Fils. Around the same time, a New Orleans coffee house, later known as the Sazerac Coffee House, began serving a cocktail made with this specific cognac, as well as sugar, water, and bitters from a local apothecary, Antoine Amedie Peychaud. Peychaud's bitters are a key ingredient that continues to be used in the cocktail today.
The original Sazerac cocktail was a simple concoction, likely based on the old-fashioned cocktails of the time, which were typically a mix of spirits, sugar, water, and bitters. But it evolved over time due to historical circumstances. The phylloxera epidemic in France in the late 19th century devastated grape crops and led to a severe shortage of cognac. As a result, bartenders began substituting rye whiskey for the cognac in many drinks, including the Sazerac.
Another significant change came with the addition of absinthe as a rinse for the glass in which the Sazerac is served. However, in the early 20th century, absinthe was banned in the United States due to fears about its safety. Bartenders switched to using an anise-flavored liqueur, Herbsaint, as a substitute. In modern recipes, either absinthe (which is now legal in the U.S.) or Herbsaint may be used.
Despite these alterations, the essence of the Sazerac has remained the same, and it is still widely regarded as one of the oldest known cocktails. Its rich and complex flavors are a testament to the cultural melting pot of New Orleans, and the drink has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity in the 21st century as part of the growing interest in classic and historical cocktails.
The Sazerac is a classic American cocktail with a history deeply rooted in New Orleans, where it was named the official cocktail of the city in 2008.
