Old Fashioned | 12 Days of Cocktails - Day 06

Old Fashioned | 12 Days of Cocktails - Day 06

So today is the sixth day of the 12 days of cocktails I am doing. I have an Advent Calendar from Okanagan Spirits (Thank you guys!) that I am going to be opening one day at a time and creating a cocktail using whatever comes out.

Today was Okanagan Spirits BRBN Whisky. If you can't tell by the name, Its their Bourbon Style Whisky. With a Bourbon style whisky, I had to do the absolute classic Bourbon cocktail, The Old Fashioned. Not that it had originally started with Bourbon, but it has grown to become a cocktail mostly made using Bourbon.

The Old Fashioned is incredibly simple to make, three ingredients, Whisky, Sugar, and Bitters. I had just received a bottle of Rootside Aromatic Bitter (Thanks guys!) so I decided to use it. Now as for the garnish, I'm strictly an orange peel kind of guy, but its quite common in North America to use a cherry and orange slice as well.

50 ml Whisky
