Method

Preparation

1

Chill the Glass

Start by chilling a cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the drink.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of rye whiskey and 1 oz of sweet vermouth. This forms the base of your cocktail.

3

Add Bitters

Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters and 2 dashes of orange bitters to the mixing glass. These will enhance the flavor profile of your cocktail.

4

Stir the Mixture

Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture for about 20-30 seconds, or until well chilled and diluted to your preference.

5

Prepare the Glass

Discard the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass using a fine mesh strainer.

6

Garnish the Cocktail

Garnish your cocktail by placing a maraschino cherry in the center and adding an orange twist on the rim of the glass.
