Holiday Cocktail #4: Cinnamon Rosemary Old Fashioned

We're getting back to our whiskey roots with this holiday version of the old fashioned.  A basic basic old fashioned consists of three main ingredients: whiskey, bitters, simple syrup.  We're building on these ingredients to give it a holiday twist.  For the whiskey, we chose Four Roses Small Batch bourbon whiskey.  No Christmas cocktail is complete without a touch of cinnamon.  A half ounce of Fireball Whisky is perfect. 

Finally, make it fancy with some garnishes.  Cinnamon stick, rosemary, and orange peel make great garnishes for this cocktail.  Choose two, or go crazy with all three.  Top it off with some rolling smoke from our Smoke Lid and voila.  Cheers!

Ingredients

• 1.5 oz bourbon (Four Roses Small Batch)
• .5 oz Fireball Whisky
• .5oz orange liqueur
• 3 dash angostura bitters

• Combine bourbon, fireball, orange liqueur and bitters with ice in cocktail shaker.
