Method
Preparation
- 1
Muddle the Sugar
In an old fashioned glass, place the sugar cube. Add the Angostura bitters on top of the sugar cube and a few drops of water. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to crush the sugar and mix it with the bitters until it dissolves.

Add Ice
Fill the glass with 3 ice cubes. Make sure the ice is large enough to avoid melting too quickly.

Pour the Whiskey
Pour 2 oz of bourbon or rye whiskey over the ice. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

Garnish
Express the oils from a piece of orange peel over the drink by holding it with the outside facing down and giving it a slight twist. Drop the peel into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry for garnish.
