Whiskey Cocktail Base
Citrus & Garnish
Ice
Method
Prepare Glass
Chill or rinse glass
If desired, chill an old-fashioned glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes, or fill it with ice and water while you prepare the cocktail to cool the glass; discard the ice water before assembling.
Build Cocktail
Combine ingredients
Add 6 tsp Garrison Brothers Small Batch bourbon, 1/2 tbs simple syrup, and 3 dashes Angostura bitters into a mixing glass or Boston shaker without ice. Stir briefly to combine the syrup and bitters with the whiskey.
Add ice and stir
Add enough ice to the mixing glass to fill it about two-thirds (or use large ice cube). Stir gently but steadily for 20–30 seconds to chill and slightly dilute the drink (aim for about 15–20% dilution by feel).
Finish & Garnish
Strain
Discard the chilling ice from the serving glass if used. Place one large ice cube in the old-fashioned glass and strain the stirred cocktail over the ice.
Express orange peel
Hold an orange peel about 2–3 inches above the drink and give it a firm twist to release the oils over the surface. Rub the peel rim lightly around the glass, then drop the peel into the drink or drape it on the rim.
Add cherry
Skewer or drop one maraschino cherry into the glass as a finishing garnish.
