Since 2011, Erik and I have been making and collecting cocktail recipes. Cocktails are a curious arena, at once indulgent yet diplomatic: the line between invigorating and toxic easily muddled. Not to mention historical: many of the classic date back to the late 1800s.
To see if we have a drink recipe in our repertoire, search it's name or one of its main ingredients in the search bar below.
Old Fashioned:
2 oz rye or bourbon
2 dashes Angostura bitters
2 tsp maple syrup OR simple syrup
Orange Twist
Muddle the syrup and bitters with one bar spoon of water in a rocks glass, add rye or bourbon and stir, add one large ice cube or 3 smaller ones, stir until chilled and well diluted (about 30 seconds), add orange twist
