The earliest version of this cocktail was simply water, sugar, bitters, and booze. Over time, the water became ice, the booze became whiskey, and the drink became an old fashioned. Ingredients:
sugar cube |
1 teaspoon water |
1 dash bitters |
2 fluid ounces whiskey (rye or bourbon) |
1 lemon twist |
ice cubes |
1 orange slice, for garnish |
1 maraschino cherry, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Muddle sugar cube, water, and bitters in an old fashioned glass for 1 minute. Pour in whiskey and stir for an additional minute. Squeeze the lemon twist over the glass and drop it in. Add ice cubes. Garnish with a slice of orange and a maraschino cherry; serve with a swizzle stick.
