Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Begin by chilling a rocks glass by filling it with ice water. Set it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Drink

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of Jim Beam Black Bourbon Whiskey, 0.5 oz of simple syrup, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubs, ensuring the ingredients are well chilled.

  4. 4

    Stir the Mixture

    Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds to ensure it is well mixed and chilled.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Glass Again

    Dump the ice water from the chilled rocks glass and strain the mixture from the mixing glass into the rocks glass over fresh ice.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Twist a piece of orange peel over the drink to release the oils, then place it on the rim of the glass. Finally, add a maraschino cherry for garnish.
