Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
Muddle the Sugar
In an Old Fashioned glass, place the sugar cube and add the Angostura bitters on top. Muddle the sugar and bitters together until the sugar is dissolved.
Add Ice
Add one large ice cube or several smaller cubes to the glass. This helps chill the drink without diluting it too quickly.
Stir the Drink
Stir the drink gently for about 20-30 seconds to combine the ingredients and chill further.
Garnish
Take the orange peel and express the oils over the drink by holding it over the glass and giving it a gentle twist. Drop the peel into the drink as a garnish. Finally, add the Luxardo cherry on top.
