BLACK WALNUT OLD FASHIONED

| Difficulty Level:   | Serves 1 | Prep Time: 5 min  | Cooking Time: 12 min |

 

The best part of the Old Fashioned cocktail, other than it featuring Whiskey, is the predominance of the bitters. You can completely transform an Old Fashioned by changing the type of bitters you select. In this Old Fashioned recipe, we used Black Walnut Bitters. It adds an intense layer of flavor to the drink and elevates the oak flavor of the Whiskey. A Classic Old Fashioned is perfect with grilled steaks, and this sophisticated drink is ideal for adding to your BBQ menu this Summer Grilling Season.
