99% of the time that's also my old fashioned recipe now as well except hold the ice. I was always more of a Manhattan drinker than old fashioned drinker. They're a little less sweet. But whisky of some sort neat is what I usually reach for these days.
This post got me thinking of an Old fashioned but since it is like 15 degrees out, I needed something a bit heartier. Enter the Black Walnut Old Fashioned.
A bar spoon of sugar,
6 dashes of black walnut bitters
a splash of water
3 oz of rye
one big round ice cube
Smokin-It 3D
Weber Kettle with an SNS
Masterbuilt kettle that I call the $30 wonder grill
Bullet by Bull Grills gasser
Anova WiFi sous vide machine
Thermoworks Thermapen and Chef Alarm
ColonialDawg has it the same way I serve an Old Fashioned. No fruit cocktail for me. Just bourbon, bitters, sprinkle of sugar, ice and an orange or lemon peel. And if you want to get fancy, rub a bit of bourbon on the rind and light the rind with a match, set in glass and serve.
