Fans of our Demerara Syrup and our Bitters will know the two together make an exquisite Old Fashioned, and our Old Fashioned Kit has long been a Jack Rudy staple. In an effort to offer a streamlined, all-in-one package, we've combined them in a precise, balanced recipe to achieve consistent, delicious results in the glass, every time. You can expect a touch of sweetness on the palate, and a complex, pleasing bitterness that is the key to a great Old Fashioned.
To mix up an Old Fashioned, simply combine 2 ounces of Bourbon with .25 ounces of Jack Rudy Old Fashioned Mix. Add more if you like things a little sweeter. Stir over ice and strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice. Garnish with an orange peel, a Bourbon Cocktail Cherry, or both! This recipe is equally delicious with Rye, Aged Rum, or Aged Tequila.
For a larger batch, you can combine 4 cups of Bourbon with 1/2 cup of Old Fashioned Mix, and 1/2 cup of water; pour the batch directly over ice, no stirring required. This recipe makes 16 drinks.
