Bourbon District Old Fashioned Cocktail Recipe

The old-fashioned is a cocktail made by muddling sugar with bitters, usually orange, and water, adding Kentucky Bourbon, and garnishing with an orange twist or zest and a cocktail cherry. It is traditionally served in an old-fashioned glass, which predates the cocktail.
