Sat night cocktail - The Old Fashioned
I know, I know. We all know how to make them, right? And it's a Mad Men era special. Except Don Draper's didn't look right at all, at all.
Rocks glass in the freezer.
- Thin slice of orange cut in half.
Put in the bottom of your chilled glass
- One Luxardo cherry
- one bar spoon of demerara sugar
- one bar spoon of soda
- 12 drops angostura
- Half your orange slice. Give it a good stir. Mash the orange but not the cherry. Remove the peel.
- Add an ice cube and 20ml Bourbon
- Stir vigorously. If you're lucky frost will form on the glass.
- Add 40ml bourbon, more ice and stir twice just to mix everything
- Garnish with one cherry and the other orange half.
If you like lofi deep house, consume while listening to the Demuja - Old Fashioned EP.
The 4 tracks are called Bourbon, Angostura, Water, Sugar.
