Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare cocktail

    Add 2 oz Crown Royal Canadian whisky, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.25 oz simple syrup, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters to a cocktail shaker.

  2. 2

    Add ice

    Fill the shaker with ice (about 4–6 medium cubes) to chill and dilute the mixture properly.

  3. 3

    Shake

    Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is very cold and slightly frosted.

  4. 4

    Strain

    Double-strain (using a Hawthorne strainer and fine mesh strainer if available) into a chilled coupe or old-fashioned glass over 1–2 fresh ice cubes, or serve neat if preferred.

Garnish & Finish

  1. 5

    Express a lemon twist over the drink to release oils, then drop the twist in as garnish. Alternatively, garnish with a cocktail cherry. Serve immediately.
