Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Chill an Old Fashioned glass by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Cocktail

    In a mixing glass filled with ice, combine the rye whiskey, simple syrup, and Angostura bitters. Stir well for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

Smoking

  1. 3

    Smoke the Cocktail

    Remove the ice water from the chilled Old Fashioned glass. Using a smoking gun, fill the glass with smoke from the wood chips for about 10-15 seconds, then cover the glass with a coaster to trap the smoke inside.

Final Assembly

  1. 4

    Combine and Garnish

    Strain the chilled cocktail mixture into the smoked glass. Express the oils from the orange peel over the drink, and then drop it into the glass. Finally, add a maraschino cherry for garnish.
