Add the cocktail ingredients and shake well for 30 seconds.
Pour into an Old Fashioned Glass that is filled with ice. Add a garnish if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
Use a jigger or a measuring cup to measure your ingredients accurately. A precise measurement can make a big difference in the balance and flavor of your cocktail.
If you like a boozier drink try adding some bourbon whiskey. The flavors are complementary and it will make for a great addition!
You can serve this drink with crushed ice or whole ice. Just keep in mind that as the ice melts it will start to slightly dilute the drink.
If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, you can add a dash of simple syrup, maple syrup, or honey.
To make a tasty variation, try using vanilla vodka or chocolate vodka instead of plain, unflavored vodka.
