Old Fashioned

2oz Whiskey
1 Sugar Cube
2 Dashes Angostura Bitters
1 Dash Orange Bitters

Add the sugar cube to an old fashioned glass and soak with bitters. Muddle the sugar to dissolve, add ice and the whiskey, stir until chilled. Garnish with an orange peel and a cherry.

I think rye is the best whiskey for an old fashioned, but this simple formula works with a lot of spirits. The cocktail pictured was made with a XO Barbados rum and Burlesque Bitters.
