This syrup is fantastic when I want just a standard old fashioned; the flavors pair well with all of my favorite bourbons and ryes and it makes it so easy to make my old fashioneds just the way I like them! I tend to prefer a little more syrup in mine, along with higher proof liquor, so this makes it a snap...it's honestly ruined me when it comes to ordering old fashioneds in restaurants and bars because I can make better drinks at home!
