Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Muddle the Sugar

    In an old-fashioned glass, place the sugar cube and add the Angostura bitters and water. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to crush the sugar cube until it dissolves completely.

  2. 2

    Add Whiskey

    Pour in 2 ounces of bourbon or rye whiskey over the muddled sugar mixture in the glass.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Add 3 ice cubes to the glass. If you prefer a chilled drink, you can fill the glass with more ice.

  4. 4

    Stir

    Gently stir the mixture in the glass to combine the flavors and chill the drink.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Twist an orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it into the glass. Finally, add a maraschino cherry on top for garnish.
