O is for... Old Fashioned

Traditionally, the first use of the name ‘Old Fashioned’ for a bourbon whiskey cocktail was said to have been at the Pendennis Club, a gentlemen’s club founded in 1881 in Louisville, Kentucky. The recipe was said to have been invented by a bartender at that club in honor of Colonel James E. Pepper, a prominent bourbon distiller, who brought the cocktail to the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel bar in New York City.
