1
Muddle the Sugar
In an Old Fashioned glass, place the sugar cube. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters over the sugar cube.
2
Add Water
Add a few drops of water to the glass to help dissolve the sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to crush the sugar cube until it’s dissolved.
3
Add Bourbon
Pour in 2 oz of bourbon over the muddled sugar mixture.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with 3 ice cubes, ensuring your mixture is chilled.
5
Garnish with Orange
Take a slice of orange and place it on the rim of the glass or squeeze it slightly into the drink and drop it in.
6
Finish with Cherry
Garnish with a maraschino cherry on top for an added touch of sweetness.
