  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling a cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the drink.

    In a mixing glass, combine the rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, and angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain the Cocktail

    Empty the chilled cocktail glass of ice water. Strain the mixture from the mixing glass into the chilled cocktail glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish

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