1
Muddle the Sugar
In an Old Fashioned glass, place the sugar cube and douse it with the Angostura bitters.
2
Add Water
Add a few drops of water to the glass to help dissolve the sugar.
3
Muddle
Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the sugar cube until it dissolves into a syrup.
4
Add Whiskey
Pour in the bourbon or rye whiskey over the muddled sugar.
5
Stir
Add the ice cubes and stir gently for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
6
Garnish
Twist the orange peel over the drink to express the oils, then drop it into the glass. Add the maraschino cherry on top as a garnish.
