Preparation

  1. 1

    Gather Ingredients

    Collect all the ingredients needed for the Whistlepig cocktail. Ensure you have rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, Angostura bitters, an orange peel, and a maraschino cherry.

  2. 2

    Chill the Glass

    Take a cocktail glass and fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the drink.

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of rye whiskey, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  2. 4

    Shake or Stir

    Fill the shaker with ice and shake well for about 15-20 seconds. Alternatively, you can stir the mixture in the shaker with a bar spoon for 30 seconds if you prefer a smoother drink.
