Here is yet another delicious take on the granddaddy of all cocktails. Just when you thought there were no other ways to sweeten an Old Fashioned, along comes Sorghum Syrup. Made from sorghum, a tall drought-resistant grass which a Northerner might mistake for a field of corn, this syrup imparts amazing grassy and earthy notes to any classic rye cocktail. This rich and delightful spirit-forward Old Fashioned boasts deep sweet notes with hints of grass, earth, and roasted malt. Rye whiskey and sorghum syrup marry wonderfully!
