Method

Mixing the Cocktail

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by placing a cocktail glass in the freezer or filling it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Sazerac Rye, 1 oz of Ciociaro, 0.5 oz of Tattersall Sour Cherry, and 0.5 oz of Smoked Date Syrup.

  3. 3

    Stir

    Add ice to the mixing glass and stir gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and diluted.

  4. 4

    Strain

    Remove the cocktail glass from the freezer or discard the ice water. Strain the mixture into the chilled cocktail glass.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Prepare Garnish

    Using a vegetable peeler or a knife, cut a thin strip of orange peel, ensuring you get some of the white pith for flavor.

  2. 6

    Add Garnish

    Twist the orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then place it on the rim of the glass. Finally, add a whole cherry to the glass for garnish.
