Premieres April 2024. Manga synopsis from AniList:
The story of the Sasakura Ryu and Eden Hall, a small cocktail bar in the Chiba area of Tokyo, where troubled customers come for the “glass of the gods,” which with Ryu’s assistance helps them to resolve their often highly emotional problems.
If you have trouble reading the super tiny text on the poster, I have transcribed it below (it was really hard to read, just like every other time). An Old Fashioned isn’t really my thing, but I know a couple people that absolutely love them.
Old Fashioned
- Bourbon - 45 mL
- Aromatic Bitters - 2 dashes
- 1 sugar cube
- Place a sugar cube in a rocks glass and sprinkle with aromatic bitters to soak.
- Fill with ice, pour bourbon, garnish with sliced orange, sliced lemon, and maraschino cherry, and serve with muddler.

Or - hear me out here -
Stir over ice, strain into a rocks glass with a fresh ice chunk. If you’re feeling fancy, rinse the glass with a splash of absinth beforehand. Garnish with an orange twist, a cherry, or hey why not: both.
Using sugar syrup means the sweetness is mixed into the drink… And you aren’t chewing on bits of sugar when you finish. The larger pour of bourbon gives you a longer drink and the fancy pants additions really do add something special to it, but are totally optional. Sub makers for whatever you like… It’s my favourite bourbon to mix for this one.
Yes I just shared a variation old fashioned recipe. Yes, I know in some circles this constitutes a declaration of war.
Better than what OP recommended. A midcentury old fashioned is a waste of any alcohol put into it.
In my defense, I have just transcribed what was on the poster. Some of the past posters they have released for this series have had unconventional recipes as well. I remember a discussion in the comments about the Gin Fizz recipe as well.
