Over the three seasons, Claim to Fame has had some amazing reveals, but Shane's relative is an icon and I had to ask a little more about his grandfather. It was such a pleasure chatting with Shane and getting to know him a little bit better.

I hope you all enjoy this episode and share it with others.
The Old Brando Fashion
Ingredients
- Whiskey (try Mellencamp Whiskey if you can)
- Raw Sugar
- Orange Oil
- Smoked Cocoa
Directions
- So I don't have the directions for this cocktail since it was one of the cocktails at the finale party in Nashville, but maybe with some trial and error you can figure it out. Below is a recipe for an old fashion just in case.
- Combine simple syrup, bitters, and whiskey in an Old Fashioned glass. Stir well.
- Add 1 to 2 large ice cubes and stir a few more times to chill.
- Garnish with an orange peel and cherry.
Manhattan
Ingredients
- 2 ½ ounces bourbon whiskey
- 1 ounce sweet vermouth
- 2 to 3 dashes aromatic bitters, we use Angostura
- Maraschino cherry, for garnish
- Orange peel, for garnish
Directions
- Fill a martini glass to the brim with ice so it chills while you make the Manhattan.
- Add bourbon, sweet vermouth, and bitters to a shaker or glass with a few ice cubes, and then stir or gently shake. Do not overdo it; you do not want the ice to water down the drink.
- Discard ice from the martini glass, strain the Manhattan into the chilled glass, and garnish with cherry and orange peel.
