Austin bartenders toast fall with their take on a classic cocktail

Two things that everyone seems to love — fall and bourbon — form the basis for this spin on a classic cocktail by bartenders Bryan King and Megan Draughon.

Their Fall Fashioned highlights the full flavor of Old Forestor's bourbon whisky, with an added spice from black walnut bitters.

Watch the video and then stir up a glass of your own with the recipe below.
