The Old Fashioned Cocktail is simple yet multidimensional. Its few ingredients combine to create what some consider the perfect cocktail. You can make old fashioned cocktails with any spirit; rum and tequila both make a wonderful old fashioned.

The Cubed Old Fashioned could just take you to the fourth dimension! See how Jamie Boudreau explains how to make this yummy drink on SMALLCREEN NETWORK using multiple types of bitters…Cheers to Trinidad.

• 1 1/2 oz rhum agricole blanc (Saint Etienne)
• 3/4 oz dry sherry (Barbadillo Manzanilla)
• 3/4 oz apricot brandy (Rothman and Winter)

Joaquin Simo of Death & Company in NYC re-interpreted the classic Sazarac with fantastic results:

The Latin Quarter

• 2 oz Ron Zacapa 23 year old Rum
• 1/2 Bar Spoon Sugar Cane Syrup
• 1 Dash Angostura Bitters
• 1 Dash Chocolate Bitters
• 3 Dashes Peychaud Bitters
• Lemon Twist
• Rinse: Absinthe, Herbsaint, or Ricard

Fill a double old fashioned glass with ice and a small amount of Absinthe, Herbsaint or Ricard. Stir the rum, sugar cane syrup and bitters in an ice-filled shaker glass.

Dump the ice from the old fashioned glass and rotate the glass to ensure that the rinse coats the entire inside of the glass. Strain into the glass. Twist lemon peel over the glass and discard.

This cocktail was created by Ken Walker of Dos Hermanos for The Bitter Truth Cocktail Competition in Bristol, UK.

• 60 ml Ron Barcelo Gran Anejo
• 12 ml Home-smoked Maple Syrup
