    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your serving glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of rye whiskey, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Stir the Mixture

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir gently for about 20-30 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and properly diluted.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Glass

    Empty the chilling glass of ice water and strain the cocktail mixture into the chilled glass using a fine mesh strainer or a cocktail strainer.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish your cocktail with a maraschino cherry dropped into the drink and express the oil from an orange peel over the top, then place it in the glass as well.
