Stanley old fashioned
- Serves
- 2
- Time
- 5 min
- Made
- Cabin counter, or the bonnet of the truck
Ingredients
- 120ml bourbon or rye
- 2 sugar cubes, or 2 tsp sugar
- 4 dashes Angostura
- A strip of orange peel
- Ice if you've got it, cold if you haven't
Kit
- Classic Vacuum Bottle, 1.1 qt (Stanley)
Steps
- Sugar and bitters in the Stanley cup, a splash of water, stir until the sugar's mostly gone.
- Whiskey in. Stir thirty seconds. Add ice if you have any.
- Twist the orange peel over it so the oil hits the top, then drop it in.
- Split between two cups. Or don't.
Not a cocktail you’d order at a bar. A cocktail you’d make at the end of a long drive with what’s in the box. The Stanley cup is the right size and it doesn’t break.

Drive Home Sun's down, you're tired, two hours to go. Nothing with a chorus.
