Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by chilling an old-fashioned glass. You can do this by filling the glass with ice water and letting it sit for a few minutes while you prepare the cocktail.

Mix the Ingredients
In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of James E Pepper Rye, 0.5 oz of spiced pecan syrup, and 2 dashes of peach bitters.

Add Ice
Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes (about 3 cups), making sure to pack them tightly to ensure proper chilling and dilution of the ingredients.
- 4
Stir the Mixture
Stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled and combined. Be careful not to over-dilute.

Prepare the Glass Again
Empty the ice water from the chilled old-fashioned glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass over fresh ice.

Garnish
Express the oils from the orange peel over the cocktail by holding it over the glass and giving it a twist. Drop the peel into the drink, and garnish with a cocktail cherry.
