1
Muddle the Sugar
In a mixing glass, add the sugar and dashes of Angostura bitters. Muddle together until the sugar begins to dissolve, forming a paste.
2
Add the Bourbon
Pour in 2 ounces of bourbon into the mixing glass with the muddled sugar and bitters.
3
Stir with Ice
Add 3 ice cubes to the mixing glass and stir gently for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled.
4
Strain into Glass
Strain the mixture into an old-fashioned glass filled with fresh ice cubes.
5
Garnish
Take a strip of orange peel and twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it into the glass as a garnish.
