Bonded Old Fashioned

About this Cocktail

This is my variation of a drink posted by the blog Cocktail Virgin Slut. Good site. Perfect autumn or winter cocktail, or if you're in an October mood, do this.

Ingredients:

• Bar spoon of maple syrup
• Orange peel
• Dash angostura bitters
• Dropper full chocolate mole bitters
• 1/4 oz Dolin sweet vermouth
• 1/2 oz Averna
• 2 oz Laird's bonded apple brandy

Preparation:

Build in an old fashioned glass. Gently muddle the first 4 ingredients. Add sweet v, averna, and bonded, then ice, and stir well.

Or build in a mixing glass, stir, strain onto a big cube, and hit it with a fresh orange peel.
