Well if there was ever a time to perfect your at-home cocktail craft, now is it! Since most of us have been stuck indoors for the past few months, I can definitely say I’ve been drinking a lot more at home now… and definitely see that continuing throughout the summer, even as things start to open back up. Today I’m working with DeKuyper to chat about a nearly-effortless way to craft a picture-perfect old fashioned cocktail that can be replicated easily and flawlessly at-home using their Classic Ol’ Fashion liqueur.

I’m super excited to have this recipe easily-at-hand now for either virtual hangs or socially distant happy hours with friends. So many of my friends love going out to fancy cocktail bars, and now we have a great recipe to use at home if we decide to stay inside, which seems more typical these days! My friends love a good old fashioned, and even though I’m a bigger wine drinker myself, I’m definitely enjoying this classic cocktail which has flavors of tart citrus, balanced by bitter notes and a touch of sweetness.

If you love an old fashioned yourself, you’ll appreciate this recipe. It’s a simple two-step process that includes combining DeKuyper Classic Ol’ Fashion liqueur in a glass with bourbon (they recommend Jim Beam), stirring and enjoying. Typically, an old fashioned is served over ice. I love the big square ice cubes because they add a fancy element to this cocktail! Serve it in a fun glass, garnish with an orange slice and cherry. The recipe is right on the bottle too, so you never have to look it up if you forget!
