Get Stimulated

The sway of alcohol over mankind is unquestionably due to its power to stimulate the mystical faculties of human nature, usually crushed to earth by the cold facts and dry criticisms of the sober hour.

Sometimes, we party.
These are the musings of drink-making enthusiasts as we wander around the world of alcohol. We're here so you can drink your favorite sauce with style, and have fun doing it.
Old Fashioned
2 oz. whiskey (rye or bourbon; I prefer rye)
1/3-1/2 oz simple syrup (a solution of equal parts sugar and water)
Dash bitters
Orange peel
Add simple syrup, bitters, and a pinkie-sized piece of just the outer-most flesh of an orange to a rocks glass with one or two ice cubes in it. Muddle the orange peel, half fill the glass with ice and add the whiskey. Give it a few short stirs, and garnish with an orange peel.
The Old Fashioned is a classic, and is one of our favorites here at the Station. A must-try for everyone, and especially if you enjoy whiskey.
