Instructions

Description: Experience the timeless charm of an Old Fashioned with a luxurious twist that transports you to a Golden Era. This opulent take on a classic cocktail features a dash of edible gold leaf as a garnish, not only enhancing the visual appeal but also adding a touch of decadence with every sip. It's a regal embodiment of sophistication in a glass, making it the perfect choice for a special celebration or an elegant nightcap. Ingredients: - 2 oz high-quality bourbon or rye whiskey - 1 sugar cube or 1/2 tsp loose sugar - 2 dashes Angostura bitters - 1 dash orange bitters (optional for a citrus twist) - A small splash of club soda or water (optional, to help dissolve sugar) - Ice cubes, preferably one large cube or sphere - A thin slice of orange peel for garnish - Edible gold leaf for garnish Instructions: 1. Place the sugar cube in the bottom of a chilled old-fashioned glass. Saturate the sugar with the two dashes of Angostura bitters (and orange bitters, if using). Add a small splash of club soda or water if desired to assist in muddling. 2. Muddle the sugar and bitters until the sugar is mostly dissolved. 3. Add several large ice cubes to the glass, or one large ice sphere for slower dilution. 4. Pour the bourbon or rye whiskey over the ice. 5. Stir the contents gently for about 30 seconds to mix and chill the drink. 6. Carefully twist the orange peel over the drink to express its oils, then run the peel around the rim of the glass and drop it in as garnish. 7. Take a small piece of edible gold leaf using tweezers and delicately place it on the surface of the drink, allowing it to float as a mesmerizing, golden garnish. Serve in: An old-fashioned or rocks glass, chilled if possible Serving Suggestion: Accompany your Golden Era Old Fashioned with a side of dark chocolate or a small bowl of mixed nuts to complement the rich flavors and enhance the overall tasting experience.
