Classic Old-Fashioned

A Classic Old-Fashioned showcases bourbon's warm vanilla and caramel notes tempered by a touch of sugar and aromatic bitters. Served short over ice with an orange slice and cherry, it's smooth, slightly sweet, and richly spirit-forward, ideal for slow sipping or a timeless bar order.

Ingredients

  • 3 dashes Aromatic Bitters
  • 1 tsp Water
  • 1 cube Sugar Cubes
  • 3 oz Bourbon

Instructions

  1. Muddle the bitters, water, and sugar cube in an old-fashioned glass using the back of a teaspoon until the sugar is dissolved.
  2. Fill the glass with ice cubes.
  3. Pour the bourbon over the ice and gently stir to combine all ingredients.
  4. Garnish with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry for a finishing touch and serve with a swizzle stick.
