1
Chill the Glass
Begin by placing your whiskey glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes to chill. This enhances the drinking experience.
2
Prepare the Simple Syrup
If you don't have simple syrup on hand, you can make it by dissolving equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely and let it cool.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a mixing glass filled with ice, pour in 2 oz of Eagle Rare Bourbon, 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters, and 1 tsp of simple syrup.
4
Stir the Mixture
Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds. This dilutes the bourbon slightly and chills the drink without over-diluting it.
5
Strain into Glass
Remove the chilled glass from the freezer and strain the mixture into the glass, ensuring to leave the ice in the mixing glass.

6
Add Garnish
Garnish the drink with an orange twist by expressing the oils over the drink and then placing it on the edge of the glass. Top it off with one maraschino cherry.
