The Old Overholt Cocktail Is For Rye Whiskey Lovers
BY MICHELLE WELSCH
Old Overholt, America's longest-running whiskey label, has a nutty sweetness and caramel undertones that make it a prime contender for cocktails like the Old Overholt Cocktail.
To make an Old Overholt Cocktail, simply mix the whiskey with dry vermouth and bitters before straining. The result is a balanced, timeless beverage.
Add more bitters to turn up the volume of fruitier notes found in the rye whiskey or plop in extra cubes of ice for a smoother, more diluted sipper.
Since the traditional recipe isn't a sweet one, those wanting a softer or more layered flavor profile can sneak lemon juice or sugar syrup into their cocktails for balance.
