How to Make a Black Walnut Old Fashioned

Happy National Bourbon Month, friends! I figured the best time to make a come back was in honor of my favorite spirit! This month I have something super special planned for all of us. For the month of September, I'll be uploading a new video EVERY SINGLE DAY. That's right! You'll learn one new cocktail every single day this month!

Let's start with this little riff on the Old Fashioned, The Black Walnut Old Fashioned. This one stars Four Roses Single Barrel Bourbon, Nocello Walnut Liqueur, and a smidge of Woodford Reserves Cherry Bitters. The result is a vanilla hinted, nutty, dark caramel dream. Substituting the simple syrup here for walnut liqueur brings out all the characteristics I love in Four Roses.

Play around with this one! I love using Aztec Chocolate Bitters or Orange Bitters in it as well.
