Method
Cocktail
Prepare simple syrup (if not using ready-made)
Combine equal parts granulated sugar and water in a small saucepan (for example 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water). Heat gently, stirring until the sugar fully dissolves. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Store refrigerated in a sealed jar for up to 2 weeks.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
Add 2 oz Monkey Shoulder, 0.5 oz simple syrup, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters to the shaker.
Shake vigorously for about 12–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is very cold.
Strain the cocktail into a chilled old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube or into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice.
Serve immediately.
