Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Before preparing the drink, chill a cocktail glass by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice water for a few minutes.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of Old Charter 8 Year Bourbon, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Stir the Mixture

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Remove the cocktail glass from the freezer or empty the ice water. Strain the mixture into the chilled glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the cocktail with a maraschino cherry and a twist of orange peel. To release the oils from the orange peel, twist it over the drink before placing it in the glass.
