Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Glass
Take an old fashioned glass and place it on a stable surface.

Add Ice
Place a large ice cube into the glass. This will help chill the drink without diluting it too quickly.

Mix Ingredients
In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of bourbon or rye whiskey, 0.5 oz of simple syrup, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
- 4
Stir
Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled.
- 5
Strain
Strain the mixed drink into the prepared glass over the ice cube.

Garnish
Twist the strip of orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry for garnish.
