Few cocktails feature a history as varied and intriguing as the Sazerac, widely regarded as the world's oldest cocktail. According to legend, the Sazerac was invented in 1838 by a Creole apothecary named Antoine Peychaud in his shop on Royal Street in New Orleans, Louisiana.  This tea is quintessential to your any Mardi Gras celebration. It has hints of malt, soft barrel smoke, caramel, roasted apple, and star anise - which echoes the nuance of a good cognac, absinthe, and bitters-  without the boozy side effects. 

Ingredients: black tea, apple, candy apple flavor, star anise, rose hips, cocoa nibs, Lapsang Souchong, whiskey flavor, caraway seeds, blue cornflowers, caramel, vanilla

Bourbon Street Punch Recipe: 

Steep 3 tsp Sazerac tea + 1 tsp our King Cake tea in 2 oz hot water for 2 minutes.  Stir in a drizzle of honey. Pour over a tall glass of crushed ice and add heavy cream to taste. Enjoy!
