Instructions

Indulge your senses in the exquisite blend of smooth richness and aromatic warmth with The Crimson Oak. This enchanting cocktail combines the timeless elegance of port with the bold complexity of whiskey, elevated by the subtle depth of bitters. Served neat or on the rocks, it's a drink that will captivate the most sophisticated palates. Ingredients: - 1 oz port wine (ruby or tawny) - 1.5 oz whiskey (preferably a smooth bourbon or rye) - 2-3 dashes of aromatic bitters - Orange peel, for garnish Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine the port wine, whiskey, and aromatic bitters. 2. Add ice to the mixing glass and stir gently for about 30 seconds to chill the ingredients and allow them to blend harmoniously. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled rocks glass filled with fresh ice. 4. Express the oils from the orange peel by gently squeezing it over the glass, then twist it to release its essence and drop it into the drink. 5. Give the cocktail a slight stir with the orange peel to enhance the aroma. 6. Serve and savor The Crimson Oak slowly, appreciating its balanced flavors and lingering warmth. Note: If you prefer a more intense and complex cocktail, you can age the mixture of port, whiskey, and bitters in a small oak barrel for a few weeks, allowing the flavors to meld and develop further.
