This is a proper old fashioned. 2 oz bourbon, 1/2 oz simple, 3 dashes angostura, 4 dashes orange bitters

I’m so proud of everyone making OFs that omit brandy and mushrooms and Squirt and olives and gouda and whatever else WI deems appropriate for whatever they’ve inflicted upon our palates.

Tonight I made the real version, but then added 1 tbsp of whole coffee beans, stirred, and double strained. If you like coffee it’s fantastic.

So when are you going to teach the class how to make a proper Old Fashioned via Zoom aka give everyone an excuse to zoom and booze

I do keep meaning to join the Monday zoom but it’s college application season for parents of seniors and it’s a tough scene, as @Forty can attest.

Pro tip edit: make your own simple syrup. 1.5:1 sugar to water. Ideally Demerara, but any sugar is fine as long as you go at least 1.5:1.

Last Thanksgiving my brother in law, who always tries to be #cool, tried to convince me the old fashioned he made me with coffee infused whiskey was good. I suspect your version plays, but his looked (literally) and tasted like absolute shit. Look at that color!!! Gahhhhhhh.

With this group of degenerates OF enthusiasts we could always find someone with a zoom account and set it up for a different day

Those mushrooms not looking too bad now compared to this

That seems weird and gross. Just throw the beans in and stir for about 30 secs and strain. It’s great. Is this the person who got you the strange gift? If so you should go no contact.
