Holiday Old Fashioned

A cozy seasonal twist on a timeless classic. This Holiday Old Fashioned layers the bold spice of Canadian 100% Rye Whisky with the warm brightness of orange syrup. Ginger bitters add a subtle festive zing, while aromatic bitters anchor the cocktail with familiar Old Fashioned depth. Stirred until perfectly chilled and served over ice, it’s finished with a fragrant orange peel and a rich cocktail cherry—simple, elegant, and full of holiday cheer. Sip slowly and savor the season.
