Preparation Steps
Prepare the Smoke
Soak wood chips in water for about 30 minutes. This will help create a longer-lasting smoke when burned.

Prepare for Smoking
Using a smoking gun or a suitable container, light the soaked wood chips and infuse smoke into the mixing glass for 10-15 seconds.
Strain and Serve
Strain the cocktail into a rocks glass filled with a large ice cube.
Garnish
Express the oils from the orange peel over the drink and drop it in. Add the cherry for garnish.
