    To make sage-infused bitters, take your bitters base and add fresh sage leaves (about 10 leaves) to the mixture. Let it steep for at least 3 days, shaking occasionally. Strain before using.

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of bourbon, 1 tsp of cane sugar, and 2 dashes of sage-infused bitters.

  3. 3

    Mix the Cocktail

    Add ice to the mixing glass and stir the mixture for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass or an Old Fashioned glass with a large ice cube.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with a sage leaf or a twist of citrus peel to enhance the aroma.
