Notes
Pro Tips
- Use a high-quality bourbon with caramel or vanilla notes to complement the chocolate bitters.
- A large ice cube melts more slowly, helping maintain flavor without excessive dilution.
- If you can’t find dehydrated oranges, lightly flame a fresh orange peel over the drink to release its oils.
