New Orleans’ Cure puts their twist on an old-fashioned
Citrus-kissed and gently spiced, a classic old-fashioned is a study in restraint. But in the hands of mixologist Neal Bodenheimer of New Orleans’ Cure, the cocktail becomes something warmer and more indulgent. His Olmstead Old-Fashioned layers ginger, sweet potato, and pecan into the familiar framework, amplifying its sweet notes with a praline-like nuttiness and earthy richness. The result is a satisfying riff that feels perfectly matched for an oversized chair and a roaring fire.
Yield: 1 cocktail
1½ oz. Blade & Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
¼ oz. El Guapo sweet potato syrup
¼ oz. El Guapo ginger syrup
2 dashes El Guapo Creole pecan bitters
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 orange peel
Stir and strain over a large cube of ice into a double old-fashioned glass. Garnish with an expressed orange peel and serve.
