The Old Fashioned is my favorite drink. It introduced me to whiskey and mixology plus it's simple and versatile. I think it's easy to judge if a bar has good cocktails based solely on their Old Fashioned. What are your opinions, favorite variations, etc?
I really like a good Old Fashioned. Most of the bars I’ve tried around here are terrible at making them though.
Yeah, I have to trust a bar before I will ask them for a manhattan. I have had some terrible ones.
Luckily, they are easy to make at home!
