the sound shore old fashioned
Our take on the classic Old Fashioned pairs Sound Shore American Single Malt Whiskey with chocolate bitters to complement the unique palate of our whiskey.
​​
Ingredients:​
50ml Sound Shore
American Single Malt Whiskey
1 teaspoon sugar/ sugar cube
3 dashes Scrappy's chocolate bitters
Orange peel (to garnish)
Method:​
To create this take on the classic, simply muddle the sugar – cubed, loose, or even a simple syrup – and bitters together in a tumbler or rocks glass. (Pro tip: a drop of water here helps dissolve the sugar). Then add a whiskey pour and a few cubes of ice, stir and garnish with a lemon or orange peel twist. While an orange peel seems to be more fashionable these days, it's simply a matter of personal taste.
