- 2 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 dash Orange bitters
- 1 piece Maraschino cherry
- 1 piece Orange peel
- 1 cup Ice cubes

Fill a mixing glass with 1 cup of ice cubes.
Pour in the aged rum, sweet vermouth, 2 dashes of Angostura bitters, and 1 dash of orange bitters.
Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 15-20 seconds to properly chill and dilute the drink.

Express the oils of an orange peel over the drink by holding it close to the surface and gently squeezing the peel to release its essence. Optionally, rub the rim of the glass with the peel for added fragrance.
