1
Muddle the Sugar
In a mixing glass, add the sugar and Angostura bitters. Muddle them together until the sugar starts to dissolve, creating a thick paste.
2
Add the Bourbon
Pour the bourbon into the mixing glass with the muddled sugar and bitters. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Prepare the Glass
Fill a rocks glass with ice cubes. If desired, you can chill the glass beforehand.
4
Strain the Mixture
Using a strainer, pour the bourbon mixture over the ice in the rocks glass.
5
Garnish
Take the orange slice and twist it over the drink to release its oils. Then, place it in the glass as a garnish.
