1
Prepare the Glass
Select a lowball glass and place it in the freezer to chill while you prepare the cocktail.
2
Muddle the Sugar
In a mixing glass, add 1 teaspoon of cane sugar.
3
Add the Bitters
Add 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters and 1 dash of Orange Bitters to the sugar in the mixing glass.
4
Muddle the Mixture
Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently mix the sugar with the bitters until the sugar is dissolved.
5
Add Bourbon
Pour 2 ounces of Bulleit Bourbon into the mixing glass with the muddled sugar and bitters.
6
Stir the Mixture
Fill the mixing glass with ice (preferably large ice cubes) and stir gently for about 30 seconds to chill and dilute the drink.

7
Strain into Glass
Remove the lowball glass from the freezer and place the fat ice cube inside. Strain the stirred cocktail over the ice cube.
8
Garnish
Express the oils from the orange twist over the drink by holding it over the glass and giving it a gentle twist. Then place the twist in the drink as a garnish.
9
Serve
Enjoy your Old Fashioned cocktail neat over the fat ice cube.
