Old Fashioned Ingredients

Method

Old Fashioned Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Sugar and Bitters

    Place the sugar cube in an Old Fashioned glass. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently crush the sugar cube to dissolve it into the bitters.

  2. 2

    Add Whiskey

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

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Add 3 ice cubes to the glass. Stir gently to combine the ingredients and chill the drink.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Express the oil from a slice of orange peel over the drink by holding it over the glass and giving it a gentle twist. Drop the peel into the glass for garnish. Optionally, add a maraschino cherry on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Your Old Fashioned is now ready to be enjoyed. Serve immediately and savor the classic flavors.
