Gingerbread Old Fashioned

Ingredients

Scale
  • Gingerbread Whisky
  • 1.5 cups whisky (I used Pendleton)
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 23 inch piece ginger root
  • splash vanilla extract
  • Gingerbread Old Fashioned
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 3 dashes bitters (about ½ teaspoon)
  • 3 ounces Gingerbread whisky (2 shots)
  • 1.5 ounces Canada Dry ginger ale (1 shot)

Instructions

  1. Heat whisky in saucepan and add 3 tablespoons brown sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely melted. Place in a mason jar to cool. Once cooled, add peeled ginger root and a splash of vanilla extract. Cover and let sit from about 3-4 days.
  2. If you’re feeling fancy, you can rim your glass with brown sugar.
  3. In a low ball glass, add 1 teaspoon brown sugar and 3 splashes of bitters. Muddle the sugar, rotating the glass until the sugar and bitters has layered the bottom of the glass. Add one large ice cube or 2-3 smaller ice cubes. Pour in the Gingerbread whisky and ginger ale.
  4. Serve & Enjoy!
