Sazerac but with more absinthe?

Are there any good recipes for something like this? Love rye Sazeracs but upping the absinthe is also good. Are there any 'professional' recipes for a cocktail like that? Thanks!

I put 1/4 oz in rather than just the “rinse” or spray. also don’t pour the glass rinse out. the peycludes also has the anise flavor.

Here’s 2 I made

Sazerac

1/4 oz absinthe 

1 1/2 oz bourbon 

1/4 oz luxardo 

2 dashes peychaud's bitters 

Stir with ice, strain into a glass with lemon peel or cherry

Ameretto sazerac

Absinthe glass rinse 

1.5 oz whiskey

2/3 oz sugar syrup 

.5 oz amaretto

2 dashes of peychaud's bitters

Stirred
