1 old-fashioned style glass or simple small cocktail glass
1 glass to mix drink

1 shot rye whiskey
1 sugar cube
3 drops bitters; preferably Peychaud’s
2 dashes Pernod
1 lemon peel strip
Ice
Water

Add ice to the old fashion glasses to “chill” them. In the other glass drop in the sugar with a few drops of water to dissolve it a bit. Add the bitters and mix well with a spoon. Add whiskey and ice and mix a little more. Empty the ice from the old fashioned glass, not the one with the whiskey mixture, and add a couple dashes of Pernod. Swirl around and pour out any excess. Add the whiskey mixture into the old-fashioned glass and squeeze the lemon peel so that some of the oils drip into the glass.
