Jamie-O/Lazy Old-Fashioned


After coming home from work one evening, I wanted to make an old-fashioned but realized I was fresh out of ingredients. I turned to my old friend Jameson and decided he might be tasty with a few splashes of Cointreau. This drink couldn't be easier to make. I was debating whether to post it because of its simplicity but it is delicious so I thought I'd share. Of all the triple-sec brands, I find Cointreau to be the smoothest. It's a luscious spirit made with bitter and sweet oranges and enjoyable by itself on the rocks. Depending on what kind of day you've had, I recommend the ratio to be 3:1 Jameson:Cointreau and one ice cube is ideal. It was a rather hot day so I added a few more as evidenced in the photo above. I'll call this Jamie-O. Enjoy!
