Ingredients
- 45 ml Scotch e.g. Johnnie Walker, Monkey Shoulder
- 15 ml Honey syrup
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 dash Orange bitters
- Garnish Orange peel
Preparation
- Stir all ingredients with ice.
- Strain into a rocks glass over a large ice cube. Don't know how? Pour the drink through a strainer (or the built-in strainer on your shaker) to catch the ice and any solids.
- Garnish with orange peel. Use a peeler or knife to cut a wide strip, avoiding the white pith. Twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it in.
Origin Story
The Gold Fashioned is a contemporary twist on the classic Old Fashioned, incorporating honey syrup and Scotch whisky. This variation reflects the ongoing evolution of the Old Fashioned in the craft cocktail movement.
