What to buy: Amontillado sherry is a medium sherry that has a slightly nutty flavor. It can be found at most liquor stores.
Rye is considered to be the first American whiskey, but it tends not to be as popular as other whiskeys. There are a number of high-end ryes available at good liquor stores, but Jordan uses Old Overholt here.
When a recipe calls for orange bitters, we turn to Regan’s brand; it can be found at specialty liquor stores. Or you can make your own.
