Cocktail

Smokey New Fashioned

Sip wisely with this low-alcohol take on a classic old fashioned cocktail. The addition of Chinese Tea (we chose lapsang souchong) maintains the punch of a classic old fashioned, whilst reducing the alcoholic content.

About this Cocktail

A handy tip for this recipe is to use the cap of a Jameson Original bottle when making this recipe – that is roughly 10mls and one-third of a standard measure. For great nights and greater next days.
