Digestif

Method

Digestif

  1. 1

    Chill glass

    Place an old-fashioned glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while preparing other ingredients to lightly chill the glass.

  2. 2

    Prepare orange peel

    Use a vegetable peeler or paring knife to cut a 1.5–2 inch strip of orange peel, avoiding too much pith. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Build the drink

    Discard ice water from the chilled glass if used. Add 1 large ice cube to the glass. Measure and pour 2 oz Bulleit Bourbon over the ice, then add 0.25 oz simple syrup and 2 dashes Angostura bitters.

  4. 4

    Stir

    Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for 20–30 seconds (about 20–30 rotations) until well chilled and slightly diluted.

  5. 5

    Express and garnish

    Hold the orange peel over the glass, skin side down, and give it a firm twist to express the oils over the surface of the drink. Rub the rim of the glass with the peel and drop it into the drink. Optionally, add a Luxardo cherry on a pick.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a digestif alongside dessert or after a meal. Sip slowly.
