Tuesday night cocktail hour(s) (cont. v)

When I recovered my strength, it was time for a second round. For Amanda I made a

Moroccan Old Fashioned

2 oz Sazerac 6 year rye
1/4 oz Berber syrup (recipe with Berber Sazerac)
1 dash Angostura bitters
1 dash Regans' orange bitters
Stir; rocks; orange twist.

Again, a Carthaginian twist on a classic (the son of Hamlicar would be proud, I'm sure). The syrup's spiciness complimented that of the rye to give a very nice flavor. Not a bad Old Fashioned variation which I learned at Cocktail Virgin Slut.
