Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Muddle the Sugar
In a rocks glass, place the sugar cube. Add the Angostura bitters on top of the sugar cube. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to crush the sugar cube, mixing it with the bitters until it is mostly dissolved.
- 2
Add Whiskey
Pour the bourbon or rye whiskey over the muddled sugar and bitters mixture in the rocks glass.
- 3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, allowing the ice to chill the drink without diluting it too quickly.
- 4
Stir
Using a bar spoon or a regular spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 10-15 seconds to combine the ingredients and chill the drink.

Garnish
Take the orange peel and twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.
