This one is a variant of the Old Fashioned. I’m calling it the Weathered Beekeeper—a nod to the honey and smoke flavors, as well as the more rugged flavor of the tequila.
- 3oz añejo tequila
- 1/4 tsp honey syrup
- 1/4 tsp Islay scotch
- 2 dashes angostura bitters
Combine theingredients in a mixing glass. Stir with ice, and then strain into a rocks glass over a large ice cube. Garnish with an orange peel and brandied cherry.
I’m quite pleased with how it came out. Cheers 🥃
