Ingredients You'll Need
Whiskey
The key ingredient for any Old Fashioned is the whiskey. For the Japanese twist, we recommend using a Japanese whiskey, such as Nikka or Suntory. These whiskeys have a distinct flavor profile and will add a unique touch to your drink. However, if you don't have Japanese whiskey on hand, you can use any whiskey of your choice.
Brown Sugar Syrup
Instead of using regular simple syrup, this recipe calls for brown sugar syrup. This adds a rich and caramel-like sweetness to the drink, which pairs perfectly with the Japanese whiskey. To make the brown sugar syrup, simply mix equal parts brown sugar and water in a saucepan and heat until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Bitters
Bitters are an essential ingredient in an Old Fashioned. For this recipe, we recommend using orange or cherry bitters to complement the Japanese flavors. These can be found at most liquor stores or can be made at home by infusing vodka or bourbon with orange or cherry peels.
Orange Peel
To garnish your drink, you'll need a thin strip of orange peel. Make sure to use a fresh orange to get the best flavor and aroma. The orange peel adds a pop of color and a citrusy note to the cocktail.
Instructions
Step 1: Muddle the Sugar and Bitters
In a mixing glass, add a spoonful of brown sugar syrup and a few dashes of bitters. Muddle together until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Step 2: Add the Whiskey
Next, add 2 ounces of Japanese whiskey to the mixing glass. Stir to combine with the sugar and bitters.
Step 3: Add Ice and Stir
Add a handful of ice to the mixing glass and stir for about 30 seconds. This will chill the drink and dilute it slightly.
Step 4: Strain and Serve
Using a strainer, strain the cocktail into a rocks glass filled with ice. Garnish with an orange peel and serve.
Final Thoughts
The PF Chang's Japanese Old Fashioned is a delicious and unique twist on the classic cocktail. The Japanese whiskey and brown sugar syrup add a depth of flavor that will impress your taste buds. Give this recipe a try and elevate your cocktail game. Cheers!
