65% CHOCOLATE ORANGE OLD FASHIONED

The Old Fashioned originated in the 1800s as a simple Whiskey cocktail containing just spirit, sugar, water and bitters. We wanted to keep it simple with our take on this heritage drink, swapping out the sugar for our 65% Dark Chocolate Buttons. The result is a sophisticated, yet unmistakably seasonal tipple that couldn’t be easier to sip.
