Comments:

The term cocktail was coined

in 1806 to describe a mixture

of a spirit, a sweetener,

bitters, and water. In 1882 that

recipe was recorded as an

Old-Fashioned cocktail.

Here syrup replaces the sugar,

and the melting ice replaces

the water in the original recipe.

A new Old-Fashioned? No.

A delicious old Old-Fashioned.
