The Old Fashioned is a classic cocktail that originated in the early 19th century and is widely associated with American mixology. It consists of bourbon or rye whiskey, a sugar cube or simple syrup, Angostura bitters, and a twist of orange peel for garnish. Traditionally served over ice, its simplicity highlights the bold flavors of the whiskey while offering subtle sweetness and aromatic complexity. While it can be enjoyed as an occasional treat, the drink is calorie-dense due to the alcohol and added sugar, making moderation a consideration. Whiskey provides no significant nutrients but does contain antioxidants in trace amounts. Those mindful of sugar intake or alcohol consumption may want to adjust ingredients or opt for lighter cocktails. The Old Fashioned’s rich history and straightforward recipe make it a timeless indulgence for enthusiasts of classic American cocktails.
