OLD FASHIONED COCKTAIL
As the name suggests, this cocktail is one of the oldest around. Made with four simple ingredients, this classic cocktail is pretty much the one that started it all. This boozy number is a sweeter alternative to whiskey on the rocks, and the added hint of orange gives it just the right balance. Traditionally made with a sugar cube, with modern concoctions replacing this for a heavy teaspoon of sugar syrup. Mmm!
