Method
Cocktail
Build
Add 2 oz HighWest Bourbon, 0.5 oz simple syrup, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters into a mixing glass or cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Stir & Chill
Stir briskly for about 20–30 seconds (or about 15–20 full rotations) until the mixture is well chilled and slightly diluted (glass feels very cold).
Strain
Strain the chilled cocktail into an old-fashioned glass over one large ice cube or a large ice sphere.
Garnish
Express an orange peel over the drink by holding it skin-side down above the glass and giving it a firm twist to release oils. Run the peel around the rim, then drop it into the drink as garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy.
