I shared in this post that I hosted a virtual cocktail making class. This upgraded old fashioned cocktail was the second drink I curated for that event. It takes a classic drink and makes it a little more approachable for those of use that may not have acquired a taste for it. It also is close enough that those who do can still enjoy it.
My brother told me that my drinks tend to be a little more for the ladies, so I am working on that lol! Make sure you let me know what you like so I can incorporate it into future recipes! I am open and ready to make you ALL a great host!
Ingredients:
- 2.5oz Bourbon
- 1/2oz St. Germain Liqueur
- 3 dashes Angostura Bitters
- Lemon twist garnish
Directions:
- Add ice, Bourbon, St. Germain, and Bitters in a cocktail mixing glass using a jigger
- Stir gently for about 10 seconds
- Expel oils from the lemon twist into a glass and around the rim
- Serve over ice and enjoy 🙂
I hope you all enjoy this upgraded Old Fashioned Cocktail! Especially the men who have said I’ve been leaving them out 😉 If you want to stay true to the classic, simply omit St. Germain. I would suggest adding it last so that you get an idea of what this cocktail is truly about!
