WhiskeyTV: “The True Original Cocktail”

In this episode of Whiskey TV, we break down the true origin of the Old Fashioned — the original cocktail as defined in 1806: spirit, sugar, water, and bitters. Before sugar cubes. Before muddled oranges. Before soda water. Just structure. Stan and I talk through: • The real history of the Old Fashioned • How cocktails evolved over time • The original Old Fashioned recipe • Why this drink is considered the first true cocktail • Our personal whiskey journey — from Old Fashioneds to drinking whiskey neat Stan started as an Old Fashioned drinker and eventually transitioned into enjoying whiskey neat. We discuss how the original cocktail still allows you to highlight the whiskey without masking it — softening the spirit just enough while still respecting it. If you’re new to whiskey, starting with an Old Fashioned might be your entry point. If you’re already a whiskey neat drinker, this episode shows how to enjoy a cocktail without losing the character of the spirit. 🥃 The Original Old Fashioned Recipe: • 2 oz whiskey (rye was historically common) • 1 tsp granulated sugar • 1 tsp water • 2–3 dashes bitters Stir until sugar dissolves. Add whiskey. Optional small ice. This isn’t about sweetness. It’s about structure. #OldFashioned #WhiskeyJourney #OriginalCocktail #WhiskeyHistory #WhiskeyTV
