How to Enjoy It
Pour about two and a half ounces of Rod & Hammer's Old Fashioned over one large ice cube in a rocks glass, then express an orange peel over the top and drop it in, or garnish with a cocktail cherry. Stir briefly to chill. For a slightly lighter drink, add a splash of water or soda. It is perfect for parties: chill the bottle and set out ice, orange peels and cherries so guests can serve themselves. Pair it with steak, barbecue, smoked meats, aged cheeses or pecan pie. For a winter twist, stir in a dash of maple syrup and garnish with a cinnamon stick, or add a splash of cherry liqueur for a fruitier take. On a summer evening, top a short pour with sparkling water for a lighter Old Fashioned highball. It also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or game night. Keep the bottle in a cool, dark place after opening.
