Chris’ Old Fashioned:
Place 1 sugar cube in an old fashioned glass (go figure), 4 drops angostura bitters, one thick slice of orange without rind, splash of bourbon, and splash of water – muddle to combine
Add two maraschino cherries, fill with crushed ice, add 2 oz. of your favorite bourbon (I also like rye whiskey)
Heat retained orange rind with lighter/match and flame zest on to surface of drink, drop in and enjoy!
Darren’s Old Fashioned:
1 – 2 sugar cubes, depending on how sweet you like it, put them into a paper towel, dash on the bitters until they are completely colored by them (they will only hold so much, i.e., a perfect repeatable measured amount)
Add a splash of warm water to an empty rocks glass, add the sugar cube bitters combo, muddle until dissolved, add 1.5 oz of bourbon and ice of choice
