2tablespoonsLuxardo cherry juice*

For serving:
Lemon-lime soda(1/4 cup per serving)
Orange slice and Luxardo cherries*
Instructions
Start by adding the water and sugar to a large saucepan. Stir continuously and bring to a boil. Cook until the sugar is dissolved. This will take about five minutes. Allow to cool completely.
Next, stir in the bourbon, orange juice concentrate, cherry juice, and bitters. Pour this mixture into a freezer-safe baking dish that will hold at least 3 quarts. Freeze for 10-12 hours or overnight. If possible, stir the mixture with a fork once or twice during the freezing process.
To serve, place about 3/4 cup of the Old Fashioned mixture in a glass. Top with about 1/4 cup lemon-lime soda. Garnish with an orange slice and a cherry.
Notes
For this recipe, I used Luxardo Cherries. These can be a bit expensive. If you prefer, you can substitute maraschino cherries. For the substitution, use 1/4 cup maraschino cherry juice in place of the 2 tablespoons Luxardo cherry juice.
