3-4oz Rye or bourbon
4-5 dashs Ango bitters
2-3 Regans orange bitters
Tsp brown sugar simple syrup

Make a few and adjust the bitters & SS to your liking. Once In a while I'll use a fresh satsuma in mine instead of the regans.

Sometimes a splash of club soda if I have it.

I like a slice of orange and a cherry in the bottom of a glass. Add a teaspoon or so of sugar and muddle. Add ice and bourbon.

I've been using the following recipe:

1 packet of sugar in the raw
Several shakes of Angostura bitters

muddle the sugar then swirl the liquid around the glass to coat the sides

muddle small slice of orange on the rind

splash of water

one large ice cube made with filtered water

approx. 2 oz of Bourbon- usually Evan Williams SB or Buffalo Trace

stir and enjoy!

Muddle a some orange peels and cherries in a rocks glass. Add a tsp of cherry juice from cherries. Add a jigger of simple syrup. (Sugar packets are crap. Make simple syrup, its easy). Add jigger, or 1&1/2 jigger of bourbon. Add ice. Add a little bit of water. Add bitters. Stir. Enjoy.

Bourbon ice bitters and a splooge of maple syrup. I'd use SS but maple syrup is easier since it's already on hand so IDGAF
