What is "old-fashioned"?

Old-fashioned is a classic cocktail that is believed to have originated in the United States in the late 19th century. The drink is made with whiskey, typically bourbon or rye, sugar, bitters, and a citrus peel, which are muddled together with ice and then strained into a rocks glass. The cocktail is typically garnished with a slice of orange or a cherry. Old-fashioned is known for its smooth and sophisticated taste, with the whiskey providing a rich and smoky flavor and the bitters adding a depth of flavor and complexity. The sugar adds a touch of sweetness to the cocktail, while the citrus peel adds a fresh and aromatic finish. Old-fashioned can be customized with various types of whiskey and bitters, and it can also be made with a different type of sweetener, such as maple syrup or honey. It is a popular cocktail that is often enjoyed as an after-dinner drink or as a refined and elegant cocktail at a social gathering.
