  4. 1 Dash Orange Bitters
  5. Optional: smoke the glass with wood chips or a cinnamon stick

Directions

  2. Add ice to the mixing glass so that there's more ice than liquid. 
  3. Use a bar spoon to carefully stir the cocktail for about 30 seconds.
  4. Add a square or sphere ice cube to your rocks glass and use a hawthorne strainer to pour your stirred cocktail into the glass.
  5. Peel an orange and hold the orange peel with the skin side facing the drink, then pinch it to release the essential oils over the top of the cocktail. Rub the peel along the rim of the glass before dropping it in.
