Instructions

Immerse yourself in a layered symphony of flavors that softens the boldness of bourbon, creating an inviting sip for those who normally shy away from it. This cocktail enhances the spirit with fruit and herbal notes, offering a gateway experience to appreciate bourbon in its neat form. **Ingredients**: - 2 oz High-Quality Bourbon - 1/2 oz Apple-Cinnamon Simple Syrup - 2 dashes Orange Bitters - 2 dashes Angostura Bitters - 1 dash Black Walnut Bitters - Fresh Apple Slice (for garnish) - Cinnamon Stick (for garnish) **Apple-Cinnamon Simple Syrup**: - 1 cup Water - 1 cup Granulated Sugar - 2 Cinnamon Sticks - 1 Green Apple, sliced **Glass**: - Double Old Fashioned Glass **Instructions**: 1. **Prepare the Apple-Cinnamon Simple Syrup**: - In a saucepan over medium heat, combine water and sugar. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved. - Add cinnamon sticks and apple slices to the syrup, then bring the mixture to a simmer. - Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes to infuse the flavors. - Remove from heat and allow it to cool. Strain out the solids and bottle the syrup for use. 2. **Assemble the Cocktail**: - In a mixing glass, combine the bourbon, apple-cinnamon simple syrup, orange bitters, Angostura bitters, and black walnut bitters. - Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir gently for about 30 seconds until well-chilled. - Strain the mixture into a double old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube to maintain a slow dilution. 3. **Garnish**: - Express the oils of an orange peel over the glass and rub it around the rim before dropping it in. - Add a fresh apple slice and a cinnamon stick for the full aromatic experience. **Serving Suggestion**: Serve the Twilight Orchard Old Fashioned with the garnishes as a means to enjoy bourbon in a more approachable manner. The fruit and spice elements will complement the whiskey's natural flavors without overwhelming its character, setting a serene scene reminiscent of an orchard at dusk. With each sip, the aim is for the drinker to become more acquainted with the subtleties of bourbon.
