Method
Cocktail
- 1
Build and chill
Fill a mixing glass or cocktail shaker halfway with large ice cubes. Pour in 1 oz bourbon, 0.5 oz orange liqueur, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice and 0.5 oz simple syrup. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
- 2
Stir
Stir the mixture briskly with a bar spoon for 20–30 seconds (about 15–20 full rotations) until well chilled and slightly diluted.
- 3
Prepare glass
Fill a rocks glass or short stem wine glass with crushed ice (or a single large clear ice cube if preferred).
- 4
Combine with wine
Strain the chilled spirit mixture over the prepared glass with ice. Immediately top with 6 oz (about 3/4 cup) of Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon poured gently over the back of a spoon to create a layered, integrated pour. Give one very gentle stir (1–2 turns) to marry the ingredients without fully losing the wine's texture.

Garnish and finish
Express the oils from the orange peel over the surface by holding the peel skin-side down and giving it a sharp twist above the glass, then wipe the rim with the peel and drop it into the drink with the brandied or Luxardo cherry on a pick. Serve immediately.
