Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your cocktail glass. You can do this by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or filling it with ice water while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of Wild Turkey Bourbon, 1 oz of Italian Amaro, and 0.5 oz of maple syrup.

  3. 3

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the mixing glass with the other ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Add 4 ice cubes to the mixing glass to chill the mixture.

  5. 5

    Stir the Mixture

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

  6. 6

    Strain into Glass

    Remove the ice from your chilled cocktail glass if you were using ice water. Strain the chilled mixture into the glass.

  7. 7

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a twist of orange peel. Express the oils over the top of the drink before placing it in the glass.
