Ingredients

  • ½ cup ice
  • 2 oz Canadian whiskey or bourbon
  • 2 tsp maple syrup

Instructions

  • Add ice to a tumbler along with the whisky, maple syrup, bitters, maraschino cherries.

Notes

Substitutions:
I prefer to use Crown Royal in this cocktail which is a well knows Canadian Rye Whiskey but any whiskey or bourbon will work well.
