1
Prepare the Glass
Take an old-fashioned glass and place it on a flat surface.
2
Muddle the Sugar
Place the sugar cube in the glass. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the sugar cube.
3
Add Water
Add a few drops of water (about a teaspoon) to the glass. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to crush and dissolve the sugar cube with the bitters and water.
4
Add Whiskey
Pour 2 oz of bourbon or rye whiskey into the glass over the muddled sugar mixture.
5
Add Ice
Add 3 large ice cubes to the glass. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
6
Garnish
Using a vegetable peeler, cut a strip of orange peel. Twist the peel over the drink to release the oils, then drop it into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry for garnish.
7
Serve
Enjoy your Old Fashioned on the rocks!
