The Old Fashioned is one of the foundational American cocktails, built in the 19th century on a simple idea that still works: spirit, sugar, water, and bitters. Over time it became the definitive spirit-forward sipper simple build, complex aroma, and a long, steady finish.
VINKA starts with real ingredients and uses a proprietary extraction method to capture the aroma and flavor in a concentrated mixer. Pair it with a simple, easy-to-make base of neutral spirit, water, and sugar, add ice, shake, and you’re pouring an Old Fashioned-style cocktail in minutes—no sugar muddling, no hunting down bitters, no extra bottles.
In the glass, it shows classic Old Fashioned character: orange peel on the nose, warm bitters-style spice, and a whiskey-barrel-inspired richness carried by your neutral base. The palate is spirit-forward but rounded, with gentle sweetness and a smooth, slow finish that stays clean rather than syrupy. Each sachet mix yields about 10.1 fl oz before ice; after shaking with ice, the finished pour is typically around 12–13 fl oz, depending on how much ice melts.
Flavor
Rich Old Fashioned profile with orange peel, bitters-style spice, gentle sweetness, and a smooth, spirit-forward finish.
What You’ll Need
80-proof (40% ABV) vodka or neutral spirit, cold water, granulated sugar, ice, shaker.
Directions (per 1 sachet)
Use 80-proof (40% ABV) vodka or neutral spirit.
- In a shaker or bottle, add 5 fl oz vodka/neutral spirit + 3.5 fl oz cold water.
- Add 2 Tbsp granulated sugar. Shake or stir without ice to dissolve. (Sweetness: add a little more or a little less sugar to suit your taste.)
- Add the entire sachet and about 1 cup of ice (a generous handful). Shake 10–15 seconds, then pour and serve.
Note: Ice melt will dilute the drink a bit (that’s normal and intended).
Serve Suggestion
Serve in a rocks glass; garnish with an orange peel twist and, if desired, a cherry.
