Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare glass

Select a chilled old-fashioned glass. If desired, chill the glass by placing it in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill with ice water while preparing the cocktail.

2

Combine ingredients

Add the large ice cube (or 2–3 large cubes) to the chilled old-fashioned glass. Pour 2 oz Knob Creek bourbon over the ice. Add 1/2 teaspoon simple syrup and 2 dashes Angostura bitters.

3

Stir

Using a bar spoon, stir gently for 20–30 seconds (about 20–30 turns) to chill and dilute the drink evenly. Aim for slight dilution to open the bourbon's flavors without overwatering.

4

Garnish and serve

Express the oils of an orange twist over the glass by holding the twist skin-side down and giving it a firm bend over the drink, then rub the rim with the twist and drop it into the glass. Serve immediately.
