SAZERAC

Steps:

• In an ice-filled mixing glass, stir together 3 dashes Peychaud bitters, 3 dashes Angostura bitters, 2 ounces bourbon, and simple syrup or sugar. Into chilled rocks glasses, add a splash of Ricard, swirl, and pour out. Strain the Sazerac into the chilled rocks glasses. Garnish with lemon peels.

SUNNY'S CHURROS

Steps:

• Make the dough: Combine the butter with 1 cup water and the salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat; grate in the zest of 1 lime. Let the butter melt, then bring the mixture to a simmer and slowly whisk in the flour. Remove from the heat and keep whisking until the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the side of the pan. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, mixing each in completely before adding the next.
• Fry the churros: Fit a pastry bag with a medium open star tip. Prop up the bag in a glass and cut the bag over the edge. Fill with the dough and refrigerate 15 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a large pot with 2 1/2 inches of vegetable oil. Heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Working in batches, slowly squeeze 3-inch-long strips of dough into the oil, breaking off the dough with your fingers or a knife. Working in batches, fry the churros, 5 to 6 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp. Remove the churros with tongs and drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Let cool slightly.
• Coat the churros: Combine the sugar, cinnamon and the zest of the remaining lime in a small paper bag. Working in batches, add the churros to the bag and shake to coat in the cinnamon sugar. Serve warm.

SAZERAC

Steps:

• Take four tumblers and pour the absinthe into the first one. Swirl around to coat the inside of the glass then pour into the next glass. Repeat until all the glasses have been coated with the absinthe. If there's any left, divide it equally between all of the glasses.
• Pour the sugar syrup, both types of bitters and whiskey into a large mixing glass or jug. Add 25ml cold water and a good handful of ice. Stir until the outside of the vessel feels really cold. Taste - if it's too sweet or strong, keep stirring to dilute it further.
• Strain into your prepared glasses. Twist a piece of orange zest over a glass to release a little of the citrus oils, then drop it in. Do this for each of cocktail just before serving.
