Rum Old Fashioned

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Iron Wolf bourbon-barrel ages rum
  • 1/4 oz simple syrup (or 1 sugar cube)
  • 2-3 dashes of Angostura bitters
  • Orange twist and/or maraschino cherry, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In an old-fashioned glass, add the simple syrup (or sugar cube) and bitters.
  2. Gently muddle the sugar and bitters together to dissolve the sugar and release the flavors.
  3. Fill the glass with ice cubes.
  4. Pour the aged rum over the ice and stir well to combine the ingredients.
  5. Garnish with an orange twist and/or a maraschino cherry.
  6. Optionally, you can express the oils from the orange twist over the drink and then drop it into the glass.
