Preparation

Preparation

1. Prepare the Glass

Start by chilling an Old Fashioned glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

2. Mix the Ingredients

In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Jim Beam Bourbon, 0.5 oz of Nightjar, 1 tsp of Simple Syrup, and 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters.

3. Add Ice

Add 3 ice cubes to the mixing glass. Stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds until it is well chilled.

4. Strain into Glass

Discard the ice water from the chilled Old Fashioned glass. Using a strainer, pour the chilled mixture into the glass over fresh ice (you can use a large ice cube for a slower dilution).

5. Garnish

Take a piece of orange peel, express the oils over the drink by holding it over the glass and giving it a gentle twist. Optionally, you can run the peel around the rim of the glass before placing it in the drink as a garnish.
