Mixology - a place to share and discuss cocktail recipes

Do you like old fashioneds, and wine? This is the drink for you! I can't remember now where I got the idea, but I've been making them forever.

2-3 shots Bourbon whiskey (personal favourite: Jefferson's Reserve, the gentle alcohol notes but strong wood flavours blend gracefully into the wine notes!)

1 - 1.5 shots' worth of tawny port (don't need anything too good here but a basic 10 year Graham's or similar will do)

1 teaspoon simple syrup (take it easy on this since the Port itself will impart sweetness!)

1 big ass ice cube

1 maraschino cherry
