Old Money - Old Fashioned, Cocktail
This is my favorite spin on an Old Fashioned. It is the recipe I taught in my classes, and the recipe I still make for myself, friends, and family today.

2 oz whiskey
2 shakes each of orange, Peychauds, and Angostura bitters
.25 oz cold water
.25 - .5 oz of Rich Aunty syrup, depending on preference
an orange or lemon twist and brandied cherry for garnish
Instructions
In a large glass, combine the whiskey, bitters, water, and Rich Aunty syrup with ice and stir until well chilled
Strain into your favorite rocks glass filled half with ice or with a large whisky ice cube, and garnish with a strip of lemon or orange peel after expressing it over the glass and a brandied cherry
