Seasonal Sipper: Old Fashioned Cocktails
Seasonal Sipper: Old Fashioned Cocktails
The rise in popularity of craft whiskey and bourbon has led to a comeback of old-fashioned cocktails in recent years. A simple yet stellar drink, the classic Old Fashioned is essentially a whiskey on the rocks with a touch of sweetness and hints of bitter orange and cherry. Simple syrup is a modern way to skip the step of crushing a sugar cube and keeps the beverage smooth, not grainy. Try it in our recipe for a Kowalski's Old Fashioned Cocktail.
With a Twist...
For a nuanced spin on the Old Fashioned, try maple syrup as the sweet note in your cocktail, as in our Maple Old Fashioned Cocktail recipe.
