Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Combine and stir

    Add 2 oz rye whiskey, 0.75 oz Dolin Rouge, 0.25 oz Vermouth Clockwork Orange, 2 dashes orange bitters and 1 dash Angostura bitters to a mixing glass filled with large cubed ice. Stir briskly for 20–30 seconds (about 15–20 full turns) until the mixture is well chilled, slightly diluted and visually silky.

  2. 2

    Prepare glass

    Strain the chilled cocktail into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass (or an Old Fashioned glass if preferred) using a julep or Hawthorne strainer to catch ice shards.

Garnish & Finish

  1. 3

    Express the orange oil

    Take a large piece of orange peel (avoid too much pith). Hold it with the outer skin facing down about 2–3 inches above the glass and firmly twist/express the peel to spray the citrus oils over the surface of the cocktail. Then run the peel around the rim and drop it into the drink.

  2. 4

    Add cherry

    Skewer or drop one Luxardo or brandied cherry into the drink as a finishing touch.
