Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Old Fashioned mix?

An Old Fashioned mix is a pre-balanced cocktail mixer that replaces the sugar and bitters you would otherwise measure by hand. It brings together sweetness, bitterness, citrus, and spice in one bottle, so you get the same layered flavor every time — just add whiskey and ice.

Is an Old Fashioned mix the same as a syrup?

They overlap: our Signature Old Fashioned mix is a syrup-based mixer, so “mix” and “syrup” describe the same bottle. Either way, the goal is a consistent, balanced base that lets the whiskey stay the star.

How much mix do I use per drink?

A good starting point is about 1/4 ounce of mix to two ounces of whiskey, stirred over ice, then adjusted to taste. Start light — you can always add a little more.

Do I still need bitters if I use a mix?

Usually not — a well-made Old Fashioned mix already carries the bitter and aromatic notes. If you like a more bitters-forward drink, add a dash on top.

What is the difference between the Signature mix and the flavor kits?

The Signature Old Fashioned mix is the classic base. The flavor and gift kits pair that base with garnishes and extras like cherries and orange, so you can build a complete, elevated drink or give it as a gift.
