At Elite Bartending School, Orlando, we make a lot of real drinks, so our students can receive a top bartending education, that we provide our students here in beautiful Orlando
This is just another reason why we are the number one bartending school in Orlando.
Today we are going to discuss one of the most classic drinks of all times, The Old Fashioned.
The Old Fashioned is a simple drink that is hard to master, here at Elite Bartending School Orlando we will show you how to balance this drink to perfection.
The Old Fashioned is traditionally made by muddling sugar with bitters, then adding Bourbon Whisky, some bartenders like to use Brandy, however, here at Elite Bartending School Orlando we preferer to create this drink the “old fashioned’ way.
First things first, you need to make your home-made simple syrup, come learn how to make the perfect syrup at our Orlando location.
Then you need to select your favorite premium Bourbon Whisky.
Then we need to be very careful adding our Angostura bitters, too much will destroy the drink, so only add a few drops, before you stir all the ingredients together.
Yes, this is a stirred cocktail, at Elite Bartending School Orlando we go into the depths of why cocktails need to be shaken and some cocktails need to be stirred.
Finally strain over a giant ice cube, garnishing the drink with a flamed orange zest. This will bring out the unique Citrus flavors in the Bourbon and add the gift of smell your drink.
Remember, allow your customers to taste the drink first not last.
Two parts Bourbon Whisky to one-part Simple syrup.
Cheers.
