{"product_id":"new-old-fashioned-kit","title":"Old Fashioned Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the cocktail kit for the person who wants to make a great old fashioned at home without becoming a mixologist. We bundled our craft Old Fashioned Syrup, our Aromatic Bitters, a jar of imported Hotel Starlino maraschino cherries, a gold pour spout, and a step-by-step recipe card into one box. Add your favorite bourbon or rye, and you're making bar-quality old fashioneds in 30 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe math: this kit makes about 24 cocktails, which works out to roughly $1.70 per drink before the whiskey — significantly cheaper than a bar tab. The Starlino cherries (real Italian maraschino, not the fluorescent-red kind) are worth the kit by themselves. The pour spout fits the syrup bottle for clean, drip-free pouring. And the recipe card walks you through the perfect ratio if you've never built an old fashioned from scratch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 oz Old Fashioned Syrup — cherry, orange oil, gentian, French orange liqueur extract, baking spices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.4 oz Aromatic Bitters — cinchona, bitter orange, cardamom, chamomile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.5 oz Hotel Starlino Maraschino Cherries — real Italian, no fluorescent dye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGold Pour Spout — fits the syrup bottle for drip-free pouring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep-by-step recipe card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Short Version:\u003c\/strong\u003e A complete old fashioned cocktail kit — our craft Old Fashioned Syrup, Aromatic Bitters, real Italian Starlino cherries, a pour spout, and a recipe card.

The bitters keep effectively indefinitely (40% ABV makes them self-preserving). The Starlino cherries keep up to 2 years opened in the fridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What kind of whiskey should I buy to use with this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: Old fashioneds are traditionally made with either bourbon (sweeter, vanilla-forward) or rye (drier, spicier). For a mellow, easy-drinking old fashioned, go bourbon — Bulleit, Buffalo Trace, or Maker's Mark are all great starting points. For something with more bite and character, go rye — Bulleit Rye, Rittenhouse, or Old Overholt. The syrup works beautifully with either. Just avoid the bottom-shelf stuff; you can taste the whiskey clearly in an old fashioned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this a good gift?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: One of our most-given gifts. The whole kit looks impressive, contains real-craft ingredients (not mass-produced cocktail mixers), and gives the recipient everything they need except a bottle of whiskey — which most cocktail-curious people already have or are happy to pick up. Especially good for cocktail beginners, since the recipe card removes the guesswork.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Portland Syrups","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45758493819051,"sku":"587469852145","price":752.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2326\/9307\/files\/20251004_goodrichD_Portland_S070.jpg?v=1761254722","url":"https:\/\/beveragemixers.com\/en-mx\/products\/new-old-fashioned-kit","provider":"Portland Syrups","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
