Dos Caras Old Fashioned

Cocktail Recipe
Ingredients:
3 oz of Dos Caras Añejo
0.50 oz of agave syrup
3 dashes of Angostura bitters
4 dashes of orange bitters
1 luxardo cherry
Technique:
Chill your rocks glass – Set the mood right by chilling a rocks glass with ice or in the freezer. A cold glass is the first step to a perfectly balanced experience.
Build it in the mixing glass – Pour the Dos Caras Añejo, agave syrup, Angostura bitters, and orange bitters into a mixing glass filled with ice. This is where the magic happens.
Stir with elegance – Stir slowly and smoothly for about 20–30 seconds. You want just the right amount of dilution to open up the flavors while keeping the cocktail bold and potent.
Strain and serve – Strain the mixture into your pre-chilled rocks glass over a large, single ice cube or a fresh rock or two. This keeps the drink cold without watering it down too quickly.
Garnish with finesse – Express a lemon peel over the drink to release its oils, then lay it over the rim. Add a wedge of winter orange for a hint of seasonal brightness, and place the Luxardo cherry at the base.
Made with Dos Caras Añejo

Dos Caras Añejo brings a depth of flavor that only comes from years of aging. Complex notes of vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak make this spirit as smooth as silk yet unapologetically bold—this is the soul of the “Old Fashioned.”
Just a touch of agave syrup adds a gentle sweetness that enhances, rather than competes with, the aged notes in the Añejo—a nod to tequila’s origins, adding warmth and cohesion to the drink.
Classic bitters lend spice and depth, grounding the cocktail with hints of clove and cinnamon that enhance the Añejo’s barrel-aged richness.
A hint of bright citrus adds balance and lightness, lifting the cocktail just enough to let all the flavors shine in harmony.
For a finishing touch of luxury, a richly flavored cherry adds a hint of dark fruit, beautifully complementing the drink’s oaky, caramel undertones.
