1 2/3 fl oz | Bourbon whiskey |
1/3 fl oz | Sugar-free sweetener syrup |
3 dash | Angostura Aromatic Bitters (optional) |
Garnish:
Orange zest twist
How to make:
STIR half the bourbon with three ice cubes (dry to the touch well-frozen ice, not wet ice) directly in serving glass. Add the rest of bourbon, sugar-free syrup, bitters and two more ice cubes. STIR some more and add another two ice cubes. And if you have room, add more ice before serving.

Review:
Despite being made with a dash of sweetener rather than sugar this is a very palatable Old Fashioned and many will not be able to differentiate between the classic sugar-loaded version.
Adding aromatic bitters will help the cocktail's flavour but, depending on the bitters used, is likely to add trace amounts of sugar.

Adapted from the classic serve by yours truly in January 2019.
