Cocktail Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Sugar

    In a rocks glass, place the sugar cube and add two dashes of Angostura bitters on top. Muddle them together using a muddler or the back of a spoon until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Add the Whiskey

    Pour 2 oz of bourbon or rye whiskey into the glass over the muddled sugar and bitters mixture.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with 3 ice cubes, allowing the drink to chill and slightly dilute.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Twist a strip of orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop the peel into the glass. Finally, add a maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the Old Fashioned immediately, stirring gently to combine the flavors if desired.
