Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling a coupe or cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass filled with ice, pour in 2 oz of Highwest Bourbon, 1 oz of Highwest Rye, 1 oz of Carpano Antica, and add 2 dashes of barrel-aged bitters.

  3. 3

    Stir

    Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and properly diluted.

  4. 4

    Strain

    Remove the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass using a fine mesh strainer to catch any ice shards.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Express the oils from an orange twist over the drink by holding the twist over the glass and giving it a gentle squeeze. Then, place the twist on the rim of the glass as a garnish.
