  "textContent": "Ordering an Old Fashioned in 2026 is no cause for commotion. You ask for the drink, specify the liquor, and watch the bartender mix it up with just sugar, bitters, and booze. But that wasn’t always the case. While the Old Fashioned is often recognized as one of the world’s first cocktails, behind the drink as we know it today lies a succession of preceding concoctions beginning over 200 years ago. Each iteration wasn’t necessarily a forward step. Some Old Fashioned reinventions brought oddball ingredients into the recipe, disrupting the drink’s flavors and textures.\n\nThe article A Visual Timeline of the Old Fashioned, From the Whiskey Cocktail to the Oaxaca appeared first on VinePair.",
