Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by chilling an Old Fashioned glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Muddle Ingredients

    In a separate mixing glass, place the sugar cube and add 2 dashes of aromatic bitters. Muddle these together until the sugar is dissolved.

  3. 3

    Add Bourbon

    Pour 2 oz of Makers Mark Bourbon into the mixing glass with the muddled sugar and bitters.

  4. 4

    Add Orange Essence

    Add 1 tsp of orange essence to the mixing glass to impart a fragrant citrus aroma.

  5. 5

    Mix the Cocktail

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes and stir the mixture for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  6. 6

    Strain the Cocktail

    Dump the ice water from the chilled Old Fashioned glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass over fresh ice cubes (3 cubes).

  7. 7

    Garnish

    Take an orange twist and express the oils over the drink before placing it in the glass as a garnish.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Bludorn Barrel Old Fashioned!
