Vermouth Old Fashioned Strong Style

1. Prep the Glass

Place a single large ice cube or sphere directly into your rocks glass.

2. Build the Drink

Pour 5ml of simple syrup, 2 dashes of Angostura bitters, and 1 dash of orange bitters directly over the ice.
Add 60ml of sweet vermouth and 30ml of rye or bourbon to the glass.

3. Chill and Blend

Stir gently with a barspoon for about 20 to 30 seconds until the glass is frosty to the touch and the spirits have seamlessly integrated.

4. Garnish and Serve

Express an orange peel over the top to release its fragrant oils, then tuck it into the glass alongside a dark cocktail cherry.

An expressed wide orange peel twist and a dark brandied cocktail cherry.

Versione analcolica

Swap the sweet vermouth for 60ml of an alcohol-free Italian red aperitif (like Lyre’s Apéritif Rosso or Martini Vibrante), replace the whiskey with 30ml of a non-alcoholic bourbon alternative (such as Lyre's American Malt or Gnista), and use alcohol-free aromatic bitters (or a splash of spiced black tea).
