Ingredients:


Instructions:

1. Make the Simple Syrup:

  • In a saucepan, combine the Demerara sugar and water. Heat over medium, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Remove the syrup from heat and let it cool completely.

2. Mix the Cocktail:

  • In a large pitcher or jar, pour the full bottle of Knob Creek Bourbon or your favorite. For this cocktail, I like Knob Creek because it offers a sumptuous and sophisticated element,
  • Add a few of the Fabbri Amarena cherries. This fantastic cherries add an element of uniqueness. 
  • Add 10 dashes of Angostura bitters and approximately 1/2 cup of the cooled Demerara simple syrup. Stir well. Adjust the sweetness by adding more syrup if desired.

3. Cure the Mixture:

  • Seal the pitcher or jar and let the mixture sit in a cool, dark place for at least 24 hours. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

4. Serve:

  • When ready to serve, stir the mixture again and pour over ice in an Old Fashioned glass.
  • Garnish each glass with an orange peel and a Fabbri Amarena cherry. Optionally, add a Luxardo Maraschino cherry for an extra touch of elegance. For the Luxardo cherries, I like to mix in some dark rum in their container before using them on cocktails. This adds richness to their flavor.

5. Enjoy:

  • Serve and enjoy the deep, rich flavors of your batched Old Fashioned at your next gathering or whenever you desire a refined, classic cocktail.


This Old Fashioned recipe has been a hit in every setting, surpassing the test of time and taste with its exquisite blend of flavors and homemade touch.
