The Old Fashioned is such a simple cocktail, but it can go so wrong. So, when we find one we love, like this week’s pick, we want to pay it its proper due. Created by Morgan Weber, Agricole Hospitality Beverage Director and Owner, for Houston’s Miss Carousel, this tipple is a combination of smoky and sweet.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz bourbon
- 3 dashes Angostura Bitters
- 1 dash Orange Bitters
- .125 oz Turbinado Syrup*
- 1 Orange
- Luxardo Cherries
- Smoketop Cocktail Smoker Kit
- Ice Sphere Maker
Instructions:
Measure all ingredients into a mixing glass, add ice, and stir until there is visible condensation throughout the vessel. Pour mixture over a whiskey sphere then use your smoker to infuse bourbon. Add a cherry and express a fresh orange peel to garnish.
*Turbinado Cane Syrup Bring 1 cup of water and 2 cups of Turbinado to boil. Simmer on low heat for 20 minutes to reduce.
