Preparation

  • Add the sugar and bitters to a mixing glass. Add the water and stir until the sugar is almost fully dissolved. No mixing glass? Do exactly the same thing right in the serving glass.
  • Fill the mixing glass with ice, pour in the bourbon and stir for 20 to 30 seconds, until the outside of the glass feels cold.
  • Strain into an old fashioned glass holding one large ice cube.
  • Squeeze the orange peel over the glass to release its oil, then drop it in.
