Old-Fashioned Cocktail recipe

Substitute Brandy for Whiskey, garnish with cherries or olives.

I used to be a bartender and I've been drinking Old-Fashioneds for years. Live in New York City and not to be snob - but TRUST ME - Old Fashioned DOES have fruit. I was at the legendary Rainbow Room a couple of weeks ago.

Cherry and Orange muddled. Never in my life heard of lemon, although a lemon TWIST as garnish IS fine. :)

To be honest you should muddle a cherry and orange peel into a fiune paste, this adds flavour to the drink. Where did you hear the idea of lemon????
