Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Glass

Start by chilling an Old Fashioned glass by filling it with ice water and setting it aside.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a mixing glass, combine 1 tsp of sucanat with 2 dashes of Angostura bitters. Use a muddler or a spoon to mix them together until the sucanat is dissolved.

3

Add the Bourbon

Pour 2 oz of Maker’s Mark Ella Barrel Bourbon into the mixing glass with the muddled sucanat and bitters mixture.

4

Add Ice

Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes and stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled.

5

Prepare the Glass Again

Dump the ice water from the chilled Old Fashioned glass and strain the mixed drink into the glass over fresh ice cubes.

6

Garnish

Express the oils from the orange peel over the drink and drop it in as a garnish. Repeat with the lemon peel for additional aroma.
