Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Start by chilling your cocktail 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, add 2 oz of rye whiskey, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Stir the Mixture

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and combined.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Empty the ice water from the cocktail glass and strain the mixture into the chilled glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a maraschino cherry and an expressed orange peel. To express the orange peel, hold it over the drink and gently twist to release the oils.
