Notes

What is an Old Fashioned?
If there is a favorite among classic cocktails, the Old Fashioned would have to be at the top of the list. A simple, yet satisfying, mixture of whiskey, bitters, orange peel and sugar gets poured over a single, hefty ice cube that is large enough to fill a whiskey glass. It is crafted to be stirred often and sipped slowly.
