Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your Old Fashioned glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine the Bulleit Bourbon, Demerara syrup, and Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice to the brim and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds to chill and dilute the cocktail.

Serving

  1. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Remove the ice water from the Old Fashioned glass and strain the mixed drink into the chilled glass over a large ice cube or a few smaller cubes.

  2. 5

    Garnish

    Express the oils of the orange peel over the drink by holding it over the glass and giving it a twist. Then, drop the peel into the glass. Add a Maraschino cherry as a garnish on top.
