Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Maker's Mark Bourbon, 1 oz of Sweet Vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Add 4 ice cubes to the mixing glass with the liquid ingredients.

  4. 4

    Stir the Mixture

    Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Glass

    Empty the ice water from the chilled glass and strain the mixture into the glass using a cocktail strainer.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a maraschino cherry and an orange peel. To release the oils from the orange peel, twist it over the drink before placing it in.
