Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Chill an Old Fashioned glass by filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Cocktail

    In a mixing glass, add the Copper Fox Rye, Angostura bitters, and simple syrup. Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Glass

    Empty the ice water from the Old Fashioned glass and add a large ice cube or several smaller ice cubes.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixed cocktail into the prepared glass over the ice.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with a Luxardo cherry and an orange twist. To create the twist, use a vegetable peeler to cut a strip of orange peel, ensuring you get some of the pith, and twist it over the drink to release the oils.
