Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Start by chilling your serving glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Four Roses Bourbon, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of orange bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice and Stir

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes (about 1 cup) and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and diluted.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Discard the ice water from the chilled glass and strain the bourbon mixture into the glass using a fine mesh strainer or a bar strainer.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Twist an orange peel over the drink to release its oils and then drop it into the glass as garnish.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Your Four Roses Small Batch cocktail is now ready to be enjoyed. Sip and savor the flavors!
