The Pendennis Club in Louisville, Kentucky, has long been touted as the old fashioned’s birthplace. Here, people asked for a cocktail “made the old-fashioned way,” which, to many, meant adding sugar and bitters to make harsh alcohol (in this case, bourbon) taste better. Over time, people started muddling oranges and cherries into it, too.
