Smoked Old Fashioned

Kick back and relax with this slightly smoked smooth sipper. The Smoked Old Fashioned is reminiscent of what we would imagine an avant-garde New York jazz club in the 80s to feel like: boozy, musky, savoury, and the instigator of fantastic conversation.

Tools

Jigger (substitute with measuring spoons)

Bar spoon (substitute with a regular spoon)

Mixing glass (substitute with a mason jar)

3. Place smoking cinnamon stick on a flat surface (e.g. plate/cutting board).

4. Place the glass face down over top of the cinnamon stick to allow the glass to smoke while you build your cocktail.
