Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Glass

    Chill a double old fashioned glass by adding ice and setting it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of Laws BGH Selection Rye, 0.25 oz of Demerara syrup, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters. Add ice and stir for 20–30 seconds until well chilled and diluted.

  3. 3

    Prepare Garnish

    Use a lighter or match to briefly flame a fresh rosemary sprig until aromatic. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Serve Cocktail

    Discard the ice from the chilled glass. Place a large ice cube in the glass. Strain the stirred cocktail over the ice.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Finish

    Express the oils from one orange peel over the glass and rub it around the rim, then drop it in. Garnish with the flamed rosemary sprig and one Luxardo cherry dropped into the drink or skewered and placed on top.
