Old Fashioned Variant
I saw the recipe below on a Liquor.com email about Old Fashioneds -this looked intriguing. Kevin said this is moving to the top of his favorite cocktails list.
Thirsty Fox at Zim’s Cafe. “We make loads of Old Fashioneds, especially when it gets cold,” says Leslee Macpherson, director of operations for the Ouita Michel group of restaurants and bars, including the Thirsty Fox. It is, she says, the most popular cocktail in the group, and they go for a simple version that, she says, “really lets the bourbon sing.”
Two ounces Old Forester 100 ( we used Woodford Reserve Bourbon)
a half ounce Demerara syrup
three dashes Woodford Reserve Barrel Aged Bitters
The ingredients are stirred together “until you hear your ice begin to crack” then poured over fresh ice and finished with an orange peel that’s squeezed over the drink and wiped around the rim then put into the drink.
