My drink of choice lately is an Old Fashioned. My wife is learning to make them. I had one at a restaurant in Houston a while back and she is trying to replicate it. I don't mind the practice.

Old Fashion's ren't bad, I'm not a fan of vermouth though.

@DustinB3403 no vermouth in these.

Hrm. must've just been the way it was made for me. It wasn't bad, but not good either.

I had a rum old fashioned in Austin last year, one of the best cocktails ever.

@scottalanmiller Pretty much how she makes them for me. Less bitters though I believe. Have tried it with sugar cube and simple syrup.
-
@brandon220 Orange bitters in an old fashioned is also tasty.
-
@RojoLoco Yes. Have a bottle of that too. I've heard Peychaud's Bitters is good too but haven't picked up a bottle yet. They have it on Amazon. Local places don't carry it.

Nice.

I don't have a lot in the house, so I'm trying peach vodka (New Amsterdam) and grenadine.

Ouch. Hope you put a squeeze of lemon or lime juice in there to try to balance the hyper-sweetness.

No car and not a lot of stuff in the house. Trying to make due with what I have. I found some old flat Sprite and used that.
