1
Chill glass
Place a coupe or Nick & Nora glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the drink.
2
Measure ingredients
Using a jigger, measure 1 oz Angostura bitters, 0.5 oz rye whiskey, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz orgeat, and 0.25 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.
3
Add ice and shake
Add 6 units of ice to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold to the touch and the mixture is well aerated.
4
Double strain
Discard the ice/water from the chilled glass. Double strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine-mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and any solids.
5
Garnish and serve
Express a lemon twist over the surface to release oils, rub the peel on the glass rim if desired, and drop it into the drink. Serve immediately.
