Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin 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

    Prepare the Simple Syrup

    If you don’t have simple syrup ready, mix equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Let it cool before using.

Mixing the Drink

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of Old Grand Dad 114 Bourbon, 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup.

  2. 4

    Add Ice

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

  3. 5

    Strain Into Glass

    Remove the ice water from your serving glass and strain the mixed drink into the chilled glass.

Garnishing

  1. 6

    Add the Garnish

    Twist a piece of orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it into the glass. Finally, add a maraschino cherry on top for a classic touch.
