- ½ oz. simple syrup more or less depending on your preference
- 2 dashes Angostura Aromatic Bitters

- Add regular ice cubes into shaker with the whiskey/bourbon and let sit for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Prepare your low ball or rock glass. Slice down a strip of orange peel, using a vegetable peeler. Trying to get just the peel, not the white pith.
