Notes

Originating in America in the early 1800 
A traditional Old Fashioned was garnished with an orange peel. Today the Luxardo cherry is popular.  We prefer lemon with the coconut simple syrup
The Luxardo cherry was not even needed for flavor. Garnish with a lemon twist or chunk of fresh coconut.
