1
Muddle the Ingredients
In a mixing glass, place the sugar cube and add 1 teaspoon of water. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the sugar. Muddle the sugar, water, and bitters together until the sugar is mostly dissolved.
2
Add Whiskey
Pour 2 ounces of bourbon or rye whiskey into the mixing glass with the muddled ingredients.
3
Mix with Ice
Add 3 ice cubes to the mixing glass and stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled.

4
Strain into Glass
Using a strainer, pour the mixture into an Old Fashioned glass filled with a single large ice cube or several smaller cubes.
5
Garnish
Express the oils from the orange twist over the drink and drop it into the glass. Add the maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.
