Instructions

Dive into the elegant balance between the classic warmth of an Old-Fashioned and the playful fruitiness that a fine fruit liqueur can introduce. The Twilight Orchard Old Fashioned is a sophisticated twist on the timeless favorite, adding layers of depth and complexity that will enchant your palate. Perfect for a serene evening or as a distinguished accompaniment to a mature gathering, this cocktail promises to elevate the moment. Ingredients: - 2 oz Bourbon or Rye Whiskey (whichever you prefer as the base for your Old Fashioned) - 1/2 oz High-quality Fruit Liqueur (consider a cherry or black currant liqueur for a rich, autumnal flavor, or apricot liqueur for a brighter, summer note) - 1 tsp Simple Syrup, or to taste - 2 dashes Angostura Bitters - 2 dashes Orange Bitters - Orange peel - Maraschino cherry or a fresh cherry (depending on season) for garnish - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine the bourbon or rye whiskey, fruit liqueur, simple syrup, Angostura bitters, and orange bitters. 2. Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes and stir the mixture until well chilled, about 20-30 seconds. 3. Strain the mixture into a rocks glass filled with a large ice cube. This method ensures a slow dilution, maintaining the strength and flavors of the drink. 4. Express the oil of an orange peel over the drink and rim the glass with it before adding it as a garnish. 5. For a final touch, add a maraschino or fresh cherry to the glass. Glass: - Serve in a traditional rocks glass to honor the old-fashioned roots of this innovative cocktail. The choice of glassware complements the rich, layered complexity of the drink and ensures an experience that is both visually and tastefully refined. The Twilight Orchard Old Fashioned is more than just a drink; it's a journey through the warmth of the bourbon, the mystique of the fruit liqueur, and the timeless allure of a classic cocktail. Sip and savor.
