Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling a cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass filled with ice, pour in 2 ounces of Johnny Drum Bourbon, 1 ounce of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Stir the Mixture

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

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Empty the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the mixed cocktail into the glass.

  5. 5

    Add Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a maraschino cherry and a twist of orange peel. Express the oils from the orange peel over the drink before placing it in the glass.
