Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Muddle the Ingredients

In an Old Fashioned glass, place the sugar cube and douse it with 2 dashes of Angostura bitters. Muddle these together using a muddler or the back of a spoon until the sugar is dissolved.

2

Add Whiskey

Pour 2 ounces of bourbon or rye whiskey into the glass over the muddled sugar and bitters.

3

Add Ice

Fill the glass with 3 ice cubes, allowing the whiskey to chill without diluting it too quickly.

4

Garnish

Express the oils from a slice of orange peel over the drink and drop the peel into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.

5

Serve

Stir gently to combine the flavors, then serve and enjoy your classic Old Fashioned cocktail.
