Clementine-Brown Sugar Old-Fashioned

From Wegman's online --this is a fun and festive holiday or winter cocktail. Clearly I need to get better with my garnishes!

Simple Syrup:
1 cup Wegmans Light Brown Sugar
1 cup water
1 clementine peel, pith removed + juice of 1/2 clementine (about 2 Tbsp), divided
1/2 tsp Wegmans Pure Vanilla Extract

1 dash Angostura Aromatic Bitters
ice
2 oz bourbon whiskey
Clementine peel, for garnish

1. Make simple syrup: Combine sugar and water in saucepan. Heat on MED-HIGH until sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat. Add clementine peel: let steep at least 1 hour. Stir in juice and vanilla extract. Strain and pour into serving container. (Makes enough for 10 drinks.)

2. For each drink: Combine 1 oz (2 Tbsp) simple syrup and angostura bitters in a rocks glass. Fill halfway with ice and stir. Add bourbon whiskey; top with more ice. Stir. Garnish with clementine peel.
