    Other than cheap domestic beer when im trying to get drunk, I stick to Old-fashions. Great drink to sip as the liquor slowly mixes with the water from the melting ice, smoothing out the flavors.

    1.5 ounce whisky

    .5 ounce of simple syrup (I like mine extra sweet)

    A couple dashes of Angostura bitters

    1 fat chunk of ice

    (Basil Hayden is my bourbon of choice)

      Agreed on Old Fashioneds. We make them with bourbon, sometimes rye to change it up, and throw in some orange bitters

        I’ll twist an orange peel over my bourbon to get some of the oils! My buddy does the same with lemon peel and rye
