Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Sugar and Bitters

    In an Old Fashioned glass, place the sugar cube. Add the Angostura bitters over the sugar cube. Muddle them together until the sugar is mostly dissolved.

  2. 2

    Add the Whiskey

    Pour 2 oz of bourbon or rye whiskey into the glass over the muddled sugar and bitters mixture.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Add 3 ice cubes to the glass. If you prefer a colder drink, you can use a large ice cube or sphere to dilute less.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Using a vegetable peeler or knife, cut a piece of orange peel. Twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it into the glass. Optionally, add a maraschino cherry for garnish.

  5. 5

    Stir and Serve

    Stir gently to combine the ingredients. Serve immediately and enjoy your classic Old Fashioned cocktail!
