Traditional Old Fashioned

Ingredients
  • 2 oz bourbon, rye, or whiskey
  • 1 to 2 sugar cubes (strongly commended using Demerara, or Turbinado cane sugar)
  • 2-3 dashes of Aromatic bitters (2 ml to 3 ml)
  • Large ice cube
  • Orange peel, for garnish 
Instructions
  1. Dissolve sugar and bitter with the addition of 0.5 oz of water in a mixing glass. If you're using already-made simple syrup, you don't need to add 0.5 oz of water.
    Side note: 1 sugar cube is equivalent to 0.25 oz of simple syrup in sweetness.
  2. Pour in the bourbon or whiskey.
  3. Add ice to the mixing glass.
  4. Stir the cocktail for about 30 seconds to mix, chill, and slightly dilute the drink.
  5. Drain over a large ice cube in the rock glass.
  6. Take the orange peel and express its oils over the glass by squeezing it. Run the peel along the rim of the glass for extra aroma, then drop it into the drink.
