A twist on the classic Old Fashioned, this version uses brandy as the base spirit for a smooth, sweet taste that represents the Midwestern palate.
Instructions
- Place a sugar cube in an Old Fashioned glass.
- Add a few dashes of aromatic bitters on top of the sugar cube.
- Muddle the sugar and bitters together until the sugar is mostly dissolved.
- Fill the glass with ice cubes.
- Pour 2 ounces of brandy over the ice.
- Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
- Garnish with an orange slice and a cherry.
