The Ingredients

How To make a Old Fashioned

Begin by chilling rocks glass with ice and soda water. Add 1 bar spoon of sugar into mixing glass. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters and 1 dash of orange bitters. Muddle to break down the sugar into a paste. Add the bourbon into a mixing glass and fill the rest of the mixing glass with ice. Stir with bar spoon for at least 20 seconds. Top up with ice and taste. Put ice into rocks glass and strain the drink into the glass. Zest the glass with orange peel and add twist into drink.
