Recipe: HOBNOB’s 1551 HOBNOB Old Fashioned
We start by smoking a rocks glass with hickory chips and a fresh cinnamon stick, bringing out aromas of a campfire. We then muddle an orange peel with just a dash of orange bitters. We use our unique HOBNOB/Atlanta's American Spirit Whiskey Collaboration Bourbon, but any quality sipping bourbon can be substituted in at home. We use only the finest Luxardo cherry liqueur for a medium bodied flavor with earthy cherry aromas. We gently stir the cocktail ensuring never to bruise the bourbon. This is then strained over a large cube and garnished with a sugar coated cinnamon stick and a cherry. This is our signature cocktail at HOBNOB Neighborhood Tavern!
