Battle of New Orleans – January 8, 1815

The Battle of New Orleans was the last battle of the War of 1812.  The US defeated the British in this 30 minute battle.  Surprise, surprise there is a drink named after the battle. 

While this is Drier January at Buzzed Boomer, it is Friday and it’s been quite a week.  Therefore, here is a recipe for a Battle Of New Orleans from Make Me A Cocktail.   makemeacocktail.com.  

Glass type: Cocktail Glass

  2 dash Absinthe
  1 dash Orange Bitters
  1½ oz Bourbon
  3 dashes Peychaud’s Aromatic Bitters
  1 dash Anisette

Stir all the ingredients together in a mixing glass with ice. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass, garnish with an orange peel and serve.

Enjoy!
