The Old Fashioned is a classic cocktail with origins in 19th-century American mixology, often regarded as one of the first true cocktails. Traditionally, it consists of whiskey—commonly bourbon or rye—paired with a sugar cube, bitters, and a twist of citrus peel, typically orange. The drink is stirred and served over ice, often garnished with an orange slice or cherry. While whiskey offers trace amounts of antioxidants derived from its grain base, the drink is primarily alcohol and contains added sugars, making it a high-calorie beverage with minimal nutritional benefits. Moderation is key, as excessive consumption may contribute to calorie overload and potential health risks associated with alcohol. Culturally, the Old Fashioned remains a staple in American cocktail history, prized for its refined simplicity and balance of flavors.
