Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Start by chilling your preferred glass (such as a rocks glass) by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of Knob Creek Rye Whiskey, 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters, and 0.5 oz of Simple Syrup.

  3. 3

    Add Ice and Stir

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds to chill and dilute the drink properly.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Glass

    Discard the ice water from the chilled glass and strain the mixed drink into the glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Express the oils from a piece of orange peel over the drink and then drop it in as a garnish. Optionally, you can add a maraschino cherry on top for extra flair.
