Big proponent of this drink:
Sinatra Smash
Muddled blackberries
Lemon juice
Soda
Vanilla extract
Gent jack whiskey
... Crazy good for any whiskey fan

I'd like to try it. I like whiskey, but for some reason I am not into anything fruity with it.

Would try that if I saw it on a drink menu somewhere for sure.

Don't make many of those complicated cocktails at home though

I agree i norm drink crown and cokes but when the sin Smash is made right you can't beat it plus it's basically straight whiskey

I've never had that recipe before.
This is usually how it's made from the places I have had them.
1 sugar cube
2-3 dashes Angostura bitters
2 orange slices
3 ounces bourbon whiskey
Maraschino cherry for garnish
Orange slices are muddled.

I'm not a fan of bitters, if you like bitters go with a traditional old fashioned recipe like you posted, but this drink is enjoyable if you like old fashioned's or if you like whiskey but don't care for bitters

Vanilla extract

Not sure I like this idea. Vanilla is too damn strong for a cocktail. IMO

Otherwise, it sounds good.

Found a good recipe here. I'll give it a try tonight

LINK

quote:

4 fresh blackberries
1 1/2 ounces fresh sweet and sour mix
1/4 ounce Sonoma Vanilla-infused simple syrup
1/2 ounce Briotett crème de cassis
1 1/2 ounce Gentleman Jack Tennessee Whiskey


Muddle the blackberries with the sweet and sour. Add simple syrup, crème de cassis, and whiskey. Shake with ice until chilled, strain over cracked ice in an old-fashioned glass, and serve garnished with a mint sprig.

Why not just drench your whiskey in some Sunkist or orange Fanta?
