Author Notes
Take an Old Fashioned and replace some key ingredients with ingredients from the Carribean, and you get a pretty tasty drink. —Hi, I'm Brian.
Ingredients
-
1
cane sugar cube
-
2 dashes
orange Curaçao
-
1
grapefruit peel
-
2 ounces
rye whiskey
-
1
large ice cube
Directions
-
In the bottom of a double old fashioned glass douse the sugar cube with Curaçao. Give it a good whack to break it apart.
-
Muddle the grapefruit peel–peel side down–into the sugar. Do this for a minute or two to release the oils. The sugar should be syrupy by the time you're finished.
-
Add the whiskey and a large ice cube and stir using a cocktail stirrer: 30 spins in one direction then 30 spins in the opposite direction.
-
Serve in glass.
