Ingredients
Scale
- 60 ml Bourbon
- 5 ml Maple Syrup
- 2 dashes Angostura Bitters
- Ice Cubes
Instructions
- In a rocks glass, drizzle maple syrup and add bitters – swirl gently to coat the bottom with their warm aroma.
- Add one large ice cube, then pour over the bourbon slowly to let it chill and mingle with the syrup.
- Stir steadily for 15-20 seconds, watching as the maple thickens the texture and slightly softens the whiskey’s edge.
- Twist an orange peel above the glass to release its essential oils, then drop it in for a hint of citrus perfume.
- Each sip is smooth, lightly sweet, and beautifully balanced – a toast to the season of golden leaves and slow evenings.
- Optional Garnish: Add a cinnamon stick for an aromatic touch, or a tiny drizzle of smoked maple syrup for depth.
