Old Fashioned
Ingredients
- 2oz whiskey
- 1 barspoon (~1/8oz) simple syrup
- 2-3 dashes angostura bitters
- orange peel garnish
A more traditional approach calls for crushing a cube of sugar instead of simple syrup.
Process
- Stir whiskey, simple syrup, and bitters with ice in a chilled mixing glass for 15-30 seconds
- Strain over a large rock
- Express orange oil and garnish with a twist
For a single drink, this can all be done in the rocks glass.
