The Harvest Fashioned

This one is a fun Thanksgiving take on a classic old fashioned cocktail! The flavors are pretty incredible, but to make things easier on Thanksgiving day, we recommend making the infused simple syrup ahead of time. Enjoy!

• 2 Oz Bourbon or Rye Whiskey
• 0.75 Oz Orange Spice Tea Infused Simple Syrup
• 0.5 Oz Cinnamon Whiskey
• 4 Dashes Black Walnut Bitters
• 1 Cinnamon Stick and Thin Orange Half Slice for Garnishing

To start, make the simple syrup by heating 1 cup of water and steeping 2 bags of orange spice tea. Let the tea cool to a mild heat and add in 1 cup of sugar, stirring until fully dissolved. Once cool, you can store this in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Next, add the bourbon, liqueur, and simple syrup to a mixing glass with ice and stir for about 30 seconds before straining into a rocks glass (ice optional). Lastly, take your orange and peel a strip about 3 inches long. Twist the peel over the drink to release the essential oils, and drop the peel in along with a cinnamon stick.
