Drink of the Week - The "Improved" Whiskey Cocktail

There was a bit of a chill in the air last night; fall is definitely here.  With the change in the air I find myself craving bourbon or rye based cocktails.  This one is a perfect addition to the list.

The Improved Whiskey Cocktail

2 oz Rittenhouse Rye Whiskey
.25 oz Luxardo Maraschino Liquor
.25 oz simple syrup
Angostura Bitters

Shake and serve over ice in a Absinthe rinsed tumbler.  Garnish with a lemon twist.
