Whiskey Old-Fashioned

MAKES 1 COCKTAIL

For the grown-ups, a fish fry starts with a single Old-Fashioned and moves on to Wisconsin beer.

1 SUGAR CUBE or 1 teaspoon of sugar

2 dashes ANGOSTURA BITTERS

1/4 ounce CLUB SODA

3/4 cup CRUSHED ICE

2 ounces RYE WHISKEY or brandy

1 LEMON TWIST

Using a wooden spoon, muddle the sugar and bitters in an old-fashioned glass. Add the soda and stir to dissolve the sugar. Add the ice and whiskey and stir until the outside of the glass is cold to the touch. Squeeze the twist over the drink and run the outside over the rim of the glass. Give the drink one last quick stir with the twist and place the twist standing upright in the glass, leaning against the inside edge.
