Smoked Brisket Old Fashioned

Whiskey and jerky are a wonderful combination.

To make the pairing even better, we’ve prepared a smoked version of the Old Fashioned in which to dip our beef jerky.

The result? Simply delicious.

The flavor of the beef jerky marries the aromatic intensity of the whiskey through the light smoky notes present in both the meat and our drink.

  • Seltzer

Method

  1. Using a marble cutting board and a kitchen torch, char the fresh rosemary sprig and immediately cover it with the glass.
  2. When the glass is filled with smoke, let it rest for a few seconds, then proceed to build your cocktail inside the still smoky glass.
  3. Place a sugar cube in the glass along with 2/3 drops of Angostura bitters.
  4. Mix until you create a liquid similar to a syrup.
  5. Add ice cubes.

  7. Add 45 ml of Whiskey.
  8. Mix everything.
  9. Add a stick of Smoked Beef Jerky.
  10. Squeeze a slice of orange peel to release the oils into the glass.
  11. Rub the peel along the rim of the glass to spread the orange aroma.
  12. Finish the cocktail by garnishing it with an orange twist.

Now all that's left is to enjoy this deliciousness.
