Q: Hunting season is almost here in Maine. Is it appropriate to wear an orange hat when visiting town?
—Aaron

A: Maine may be 1,500 miles from Minneapolis, but our firearm deer hunting seasons practically overlap, so we have often faced the same headwear dilemma.

To help you decide we put together one of our popular Deciders: Orange Hat.

  • 1 raw sugar cube
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters
  • 3 oz bourbon

On bottom of Old Fashioned glass (what else?) dribble bitters on sugar cube. Muddle. Fill with ice, then with bourbon. Garnish with lemon twist. No, not a thick orange wedge, handful of cherries, or a cup of fruit salad. A simple lemon wedge.
