What is Dad’s Old Brew?

"Dad's Old Brew"  refers to a whiskey and cold brew coffee cocktail. This is a popular variation of the classic Old Fashioned, incorporating coffee for a unique flavor profile. The base of the cocktail is whiskey, typically a bourbon or rye, and cold brew coffee concentrate, which adds a smooth, coffee flavor without bitterness. Some variations may also include bitters and simple syrup for a more balanced flavor. 

How to Make Dad’s Old Brew?

Treat Dad to a bold and balanced drink withDad’s Cold Brew — a smooth blend of bourbon (or rye whiskey), rich cold brew coffee concentrate, and a touch of sweetness from maple or simple syrup. Stir everything together with a couple dashes of Angostura bitters over ice until well chilled, then strain into a lowball glass with a large ice cube. Finish with a twist of orange peel to add a bright, aromatic touch. It’s the perfect sip to relax after a long day — strong, smooth, and just like Dad likes it.
