A couple years back, I found a great recipe for a "reverse amaro old fashioned" that I loved. The other night I decided to try it with the dark rum I got from Tiki Lovers instead of whiskey, and it came out really well! I highly recommend this one if you like a bitter sipper with sugary notes and a paradoxical disposition.

I have a PhD in chemistry, which is basically just mixology you're not supposed to drink, so the shift from lab to bar was pretty obvious.

Add ingredients over ice. Stir. Strain into a rocks glass. Garnish with cherries.
Editor's Note
Swapping whiskey for Tiki Lovers Dark Rum gives this reverse amaro Old Fashioned a rich, molasses‑laden depth that deepens the herbal bitterness.

This sounds like a fantastic, sophisticated twist on a classic! Do you have a favorite brand of cherries you like to use for the garnish?
