This “Lazy Old Fashioned” is a simple version of the classic recipe that removes the stress and mess; all you have to do is pour, stir, and enjoy. It is the perfect drink for any occasion, whether you are celebrating a big event, relaxing after a party, or hanging out at a weekend festival. It has a strong enough taste to please experts but is smooth enough for people who are new to cocktails.

One of the best things about it is that you can prepare a large batch ahead of time and keep it in the fridge. This makes it easy to serve great drinks to your friends whenever you want. You don’t need to be a professional to create something legendary at home.
