This Sazerac is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my Sazerac turned out really bitter. I think I might have added too much Peychaud's bitters.

This Sazerac is way too sweet for me. I'll have to cut down on the simple syrup next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Sazerac didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I think I might have used the wrong kind of rye whiskey.
