Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Begin by chilling an Old Fashioned glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine the Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon, Cheerwine reduction, Angostura bitters, and orange bitters. Add ice cubes to the mixing glass.

  3. 3

    Stir the Mixture

    Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Glass Again

    Empty the ice water from the chilled Old Fashioned glass and strain the mixed cocktail into the glass over fresh ice cubes.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with the Amarena cherry and a strip of lemon zest, expressing the oils of the lemon zest over the drink before dropping it in.
