Steps

  1. 1
    Chill a cocktail glass. Measure the Angostura with a jigger, not in dashes: at 45 ml it is the spirit of the drink.
  2. 2
    Pour the bitters, orgeat, lemon juice and rye into a shaker filled with ice.
  3. 3
    Shake hard for 12 seconds; the almond orgeat gives the drink a soft, rounded texture.
  4. 4
    Strain into the chilled glass and serve without garnish.
