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

We haven’t forgot! We’re working on our next show. Topics will include the history of the old fashioned, who owns who and where does my bourbon come from. We’re going to try and fix the stereo issue, and any other feedback is welcome! Slainte!
