Smoky Old Fashioned
Deep, rich, and elemental, the Smoky Old Fashioned blends sweet and bitter, heat and earth, history and seduction. It’s all the charm of the American South with a kiss of ash and fire. Think leather armchairs, record players, and a lover leaning in too close.

Ingredients
Instructions
2 oz smoky bourbon or peated Scotch
1/4 oz rich simple syrup (2:1 sugar to water)
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 dash orange bitters
Garnish: flamed orange peel and smoked wood chips (optional for presentation)
Chill your glass by filling it with ice or placing it in the freezer.
In a mixing glass, add the simple syrup, bitters, and bourbon.
Add ice and stir until well chilled — around 30 seconds.
Strain into a rocks glass over a large cube of clear ice.
Garnish with a twist: Express the oils from an orange peel by holding it over the drink and flaming it (if desired), then drop it in.
Optional: Place the drink under a smoked glass dome with wood chips for an extra layer of drama and depth.
