Review:

Despite being made with a dash of sweetener rather than sugar this is a very palatable Old Fashioned and many will not be able to differentiate between the classic sugar-loaded version.

Adding aromatic bitters will help the cocktail's flavour but, depending on the bitters used, is likely to add trace amounts of sugar.
