Ingredients
  

  • ½ tsp sugar
  • 3 - 5 dashes Angostura bitters
  • 1 tsp water
  • 2 oz bourbon whiskey

Instructions
 

  • In a rocks glass, add the sugar, bitters, and splash of water, stir until sugar has dissolved.
  • Fill the glass with large ice, add the bourbon whiskey, stir gently to combine.
  • Add the orange peel, pinching to help release the oil into drink, and drop in.

Notes

I only add a splash of water to help dissolve the sugar.
If preferred, top up with club soda.
