Classic Old Fashioned
1 serving | Rocks glass
Whiskey, Spiced Turbinado Rich Syrup, Angostura and orange bitters, ice, expressed orange peel, an Amarena Fabbri cherry, and a finishing spritz of Spiced Lemon oil.
Ingredients
- 2 oz Bourbon or rye whiskey
- ¼ oz Spiced Turbinado Rich Syrup
- 2–3 dashes Angostura aromatic bitters
- 1–2 dashes Orange bitters
- A bar spoon of Amarena Fabbri cherry syrup (optional, to taste)
- 1 large ice cube
- Garnish: Orange peel and an Amarena Fabbri cherry
- Finish: Spiced Lemon oil (atomizer spritz)
Directions
- Add the Spiced Turbinado Rich Syrup, Angostura, orange bitters, and a bar spoon of Amarena cherry syrup (if using) to a rocks glass.
- Add the whiskey and a large cube of ice.
- Stir 20–30 seconds, until properly chilled and slightly diluted.
- Cut a wide orange peel, squeeze it over the drink to express the oils, rub it around the rim, then drop it in.
- Garnish with an Amarena Fabbri cherry.
- Give the drink a light spritz of Spiced Lemon oil. (Secret weapon — enjoy.)
Tip: Keep the cherry syrup light so it doesn’t overtake the whiskey and spice. The Spiced Lemon oil on top is the finish that ties the orange peel and cherry together — one short spritz is enough.
