Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling an old-fashioned glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine the Woodford Reserve Bourbon, Lemon Bitters, Aromatic Bitters, and House Spiced Demerara Syrup.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds to chill and dilute the drink.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Empty the ice water from the chilled old-fashioned glass and strain the mixed drink into the glass over a large ice cube or several smaller ones.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Express the oils from the orange peel over the drink by holding it over the glass and giving it a gentle twist. Then, add the orange peel slice into the drink as a garnish along with a cherry.
