1
Muddle the Sugar and Bitters
In an old fashioned glass, place the sugar cube and add the 2 dashes of Angostura bitters. Muddle the sugar and bitters together until the sugar has dissolved.
2
Add Bourbon
Pour 2 ounces of bourbon over the muddled sugar and bitters mixture in the glass.
3
Add Ice
Add 3 ice cubes to the glass, allowing them to chill the drink.
4
Garnish
Twist a slice of orange peel over the drink to release the oils, then drop it into the glass. Finally, add a maraschino cherry on top for garnish.
5
Serve
Serve the cocktail with a stirrer or a spoon to mix the ingredients and enjoy your classic Old Fashioned.
