    Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters into the mixing glass with the sugar and water mixture.

    Pour 2 ounces of Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Bourbon into the mixing glass.

Serving

    Strain and Serve

    Discard the ice water from the chilled glass. Strain the chilled bourbon mixture into the glass.

    Express the oils from an orange peel over the drink and drop it into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.
