Coke and Anise

I haven't stopped tinkering with cocktails. I present to you my Fall invention, the Coke and Anise.

1 shot Brandy
¼ shot Pastis (or other anise-flavored liquor)
2 dashes Peschaud's Bitters
1 ½ shot Coca Cola

Put Pastis and Peschaud's into small glass. Shake brandy with ice and strain into glass. Pour coke down the side of glass.

This owes inspiration to the Sazerac. You'll find it to be more of a sipping drink. The honey note of the Brandy combines with the sweetness of the Coke to play off anise flavor from the Pastis and bitters. It's like some demented derivation of honey with tea.
