Description: The Kyoto Old Fashioned is a refined twist on the classic cocktail, blending traditional Japanese flavors with the timeless sophistication of an Old Fashioned. This drink marries the smokiness of Japanese whiskey with the gentle bitterness of matcha, offering a unique, earthy depth. Yuzu bitters and a touch of plum wine provide a delicate citrus and fruity sweetness, making it a perfect cocktail for those looking to explore new horizons in mixology. Ingredients: - 2 oz Japanese whiskey (e.g., Suntory Toki or Nikka Whisky) - 0.5 oz Umeshu (Japanese plum wine) - 2 dashes yuzu bitters - 1 bar spoon matcha simple syrup (made by mixing equal parts matcha powder, sugar, and water) - Orange peel for garnish - Edible cherry blossom for garnish (optional) Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine Japanese whiskey, Umeshu, yuzu bitters, and matcha simple syrup. 2. Add ice and stir gently until well-chilled and mixed. 3. Strain into an old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube. 4. Express the orange peel over the glass to release its oils, then use it as a garnish. 5. Optionally, add an edible cherry blossom for an authentic Japanese touch. Serve in: Old-fashioned glass
