re: Your best Old Fashioned recipe.

The OF is the house cocktail at Barrel Proof on magazine. They use Old Grandad bonded, about 6 dashes of Angustora bitters, simple syrup and the orange peel spritz. It’s spicier and great for a change. My son makes this at home when we ask him to make an OF.

I like the standard 2 oz of bourbon or rye with 3 dashes of each peychauds and orange bitters, simple syrup and a luxardo cherry

In the winter I’ve substituted maple syrup for simple and used walnut bitters.
