1
Prepare the Glass
Take an Old Fashioned glass and place the sugar cube at the bottom.
2
Muddle the Sugar
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters onto the sugar cube. Muddle them together until the sugar is dissolved.
3
Add Bourbon
Pour 2 oz of Four Roses Bourbon into the glass over the muddled sugar and bitters mixture.
4
Add Ice
Add one large ice cube or several smaller cubes to the glass, allowing it to chill without diluting too quickly.
5
Stir the Mixture
Gently stir the mixture for about 10-15 seconds to combine the flavors and chill the drink.
6
Garnish
Express the oil from an orange peel over the drink and then place the peel into the glass. Add a maraschino cherry for garnish.
7
Serve
Enjoy your Old Fashioned cocktail, savoring the rich bourbon flavor complemented by the bitters and sweetness of the muddled sugar.
