Between the incredible visuals, impressive photo studio and tables laden with candy floss, the celebratory spirit of our Denizen Heroes Gala was carried by the night’s signature cocktails — the Chivas Extra Old Fashioned and the Chivas Extra Espresso Martini. The Old Fashioned, a time-honoured beverage, was expertly made with smooth Chivas Regal Extra whisky, rendering it a refreshing libation for the evening. Unexpectedly simple to make, here is how you can mix your own at home.

Chivas Extra Old Fashioned
Ingredients:
50 ml of Chivas Regal Extra
7.5 ml of Simple Syrup (put equal parts sugar and water in a pan and heat until the sugar dissolves; leave to cool before using)
2 Dashes of Angostura bitters

Method:
Combine all ingredients over ice and stir for 10 seconds. Strain into an Old Fashioned glass (or tumbler) on the rocks and garnish with an orange twist.
