Ingredients
- 2 ounces bourbon
- ¼ to ½ ounces maple syrup depending on your taste
- 2 to 3 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 to 2 dashes orange bitters
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a rocks glass over ice.
- Stir to combine, and enjoy!
Notes
Orange peel garnish: You can add either a swath of orange peel and forgo the orange bitters if that's to your liking or you want to make the drink look a little fancier. I like to use orange bitters as a simple and quick way to get the classic orange flavor into the drink.
Maple candy: Another fun garnish that you can use for this cocktail is a maple candy or maple sugar cube. Much like a traditional old fashioned, this will give the drink a richer mouth feel thanks to the granulated sugar. If you go this route, I would stick with 1/4 ounce maple syrup since you're adding extra flavor from the candy.
