Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Brown Sugar Cinnamon Simple Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, water, and a cinnamon stick. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let it steep for about 10 minutes. Strain the syrup to remove the cinnamon stick and let it cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cocktail

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Old Grand-Dad Bourbon, 1 tbs of the brown sugar cinnamon simple syrup, and 2 dashes of orange maple bitters. Add ice and stir until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Strain the mixture into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a twist of orange peel.
