Equal parts minty refreshing and summer sexy, the mojito is a go-to drink that never fails to impress. We'll tell you how to get the perfect combination of sweet and sour in plenty of time for some extracurricular activity. Stir up a couple of these, hit the dance floor, and repeat.

If we started this blog by talking about any other drink, we'd be fired. Having dampened the palettes and lowered the faculties of everyone from Winston Churchill to James Bond, the martini is the classic of classics. Here, we settle some common debates for good and tell you all you need to know for your next big soiree.

As the Kentucky Derby reminded us, the best way to enjoy a beautiful Spring day is with a mint julep in hand.

Sometimes, we party.

These are the musings of drink-making enthusiasts as we wander around the world of alcohol. We're here so you can drink your favorite sauce with style, and have fun doing it.

Old Fashioned

2 oz. whiskey (rye or bourbon; I prefer rye)
1/3-1/2 oz simple syrup (a solution of equal parts sugar and water)
Dash bitters
Orange peel
 
Add simple syrup, bitters, and a pinkie-sized piece of just the outer-most flesh of an orange to a rocks glass with one or two ice cubes in it. Muddle the orange peel, half fill the glass with ice and add the whiskey. Give it a few short stirs, and garnish with an orange peel.
 
The Old Fashioned is a classic, and is one of our favorites here at the Station. A must-try for everyone, and especially if you enjoy whiskey.
