Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Sugar

    Place the sugar cube in an old fashioned glass and add 1 tsp of water. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to crush the sugar until it dissolves.

  2. 2

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the muddled sugar. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Pour the Whiskey

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

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Add one large ice cube or several smaller cubes to the glass. This will chill the drink without diluting it too quickly.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Twist a piece of orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it in. Add a maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Stir the drink gently to combine all ingredients, and enjoy your classic Old Fashioned cocktail!
