Step 1

To a cocktail glass, add 2 tsp (2 bar spoons) of simple syrup (we prefer making our simple syrup with 1 part turbinado sugar and 1 part water — see notes for method).

Step 2

Add 3 dashes Angostura bitters.

Step 3

Add 3 dashes orange bitters.

Step 4

Add a large ice cube to the glass.

Step 5

Add 2 ounces (60 ml) of bourbon.

Step 6

Stir, ideally for 1 minute and for at least 20 seconds.

Step 7

Spritz an orange peel over the glass to release its oils. Then twist the peel and add to the glass.
