Old Fashioned

Ingredients

• 2 oz (¼ cup, 55 g, 1 finger) high-proof bourbon
• 1 tsp (5-10 g) simple syrup, maple syrup, honey, etc.
• 1-5 dashes (⅛-½ tsp, to taste) Angostura bitters
• 1 orange twist or dehydrated orange slice
• 1 Maraschino cherry
• 1-2 ice cubes

Notes

• Avoid as much pith as possible when slicing peels. In fact, using a vegetable peeler works well for this.

• See this website for more info on making citrus twists:

• Twists the peels to help release the essential oils, then drop the peel in the drink.
