OLD FASHIONED



Old Fashioned image

The invention of the drink is frequently (and probably inaccurately) credited to a bartender at the Pendennis Club, in Louisville, Kentucky, who around the turn of the 20th century reportedly made the drink for Colonel James E. Pepper, a member of the club and by some accounts a prominent bourbon distiller.

Yield Makes 1 cocktail

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 scant teaspoon simple syrup
2 dashes Angostura Bitters, plus more to taste
1 half dollar-sized slice orange peel, including pith
2 ounces good-quality rye or bourbon
1 maraschino cherry

Steps:

  • In old-fashioned glass, combine simple syrup and bitters. Fill glass halfway with ice, then stir about a dozen times. Add enough ice to fill glass. Squeeze orange peel over glass to extract oils, add peel to glass, and add whiskey. Stir just until drink is cold and alcoholic bite has softened, about a dozen times. Garnish with cherry, swizzle stick, and straw.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe oranges and cherries for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use 1/2 cup of orange juice concentrate instead.
  • If you don't have fresh cherries, you can use 1/2 cup of frozen cherries instead.
  • You can adjust the amount of sugar in the recipe to taste.
  • Garnish the cocktail with an orange slice and a cherry.
