Method

Cocktail

1

Combine ingredients

Add rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, Campari, maraschino liqueur, Angostura bitters, and orange bitters into a mixing glass.

2

Add ice and stir

Fill the mixing glass with plenty of ice (about 1 cup). Stir with a bar spoon for 30–40 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and properly diluted (you should see slight frost on the outside of the glass).

3

Strain

Strain the chilled cocktail through a Hawthorne or julep strainer into a chilled rocks glass over one large ice cube or into a chilled coupe if you prefer it neat.

Garnish

4

Express orange oils

Take the orange twist and hold it skin-side down over the drink. Give it a firm squeeze to express the oils across the surface, then rub the rim with the peel to enhance aroma.

5

Finish

Drop the orange twist into the drink. Optionally add a maraschino cherry on a pick and serve immediately.
