Okay, now I gotta go make me one of these because it’s 5 o’clock RIGHT HERE and I can’t take it anymore. I’d compare it most to sweeter, chilled whiskey with citrusy, orange characteristics. The true old fashioned cocktail is not sweet, it also shouldn’t have more than an orange peel in it (no pulp). It’s meant to help balance out the cocktail and add flavor. The oils from the peel add a lot more flavor and aroma than you may think. It’s simply not the same cocktail without it. Don’t Skip the Orange Peelĭon’t underestimate the power of the orange peel in an old fashioned. True flavors and aroma of fall in every sip. My personal final touch is the cinnamon stick-it completes the Fall circle of maple, orange, apple, and cinnamon. Created by the late Sasha Petraske, the Apple Jack is obviously, rich in apple flavour with Applejack Brandy, Apple Juice, Lemon Juice & Sugar Syrup.

Lastly, it’s garnished with an orange peel. This cocktail used whiskey barrel-aged bitters or black walnut bitters in place of your typical Angostura bitters, which gives the drink more of an oaky flavor. Maple syrup is used in place of sugar or simple syrup (which is essentially sugar water), to infuse it with darker natural maple and vanilla flavors. It has very subtle notes of apple and cinnamon spice (and it’s actually made with fresh apples). The secret ingredient is Laird’s Applejack brandy (There is no real substitute in my eys). The Fall old fashioned tastes exactly how you’d expect it would.
