Notes
- Frozen Oranges: forgot to freeze some oranges - no worries, add in fresh orange slices and then add a handful of ice cubes! Flavor might be quite as strong, but it will still be refreshing and delicious!
- Brandy vs. Bourbon: totally personal preference - I used brandy here and loved it, but use what you want!
- Based off of my version of a classic Brandy Old Fashioned (you also gotta try our Smoked Brandy Old Fashioned)!
