   Prepare the Glass

   Start by selecting a rocks glass or an old-fashioned glass. Place it on a flat surface.

   Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters directly onto the sugar in the glass.

   Muddle the Mixture

   Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the sugar and bitters together until they form a paste.

5. 5

   Add Bourbon

   Pour 2 ounces of Old Forester Bourbon over the muddled sugar and bitters mixture in the glass.

   Add Ice

   Add 4 ice cubes to the glass, allowing the bourbon to chill and dilute slightly.

   Stir the Drink

   Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 15-20 seconds to combine the flavors.
