Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Place an old-fashioned glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Drink

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Old Elk Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 0.5 oz of simple syrup, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes (about 1 cup) to chill the mixture.

  4. 4

    Stir

    Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Strain

    Remove the old-fashioned glass from the freezer or discard the ice water. Strain the chilled mixture into the glass.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Twist a lemon peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it into the glass as a garnish.
