Peanut butter and chocolate are a popular combination (especially this time of the year). But peanut butter and an Old Fashioned?

Interesting team, right? I love peanut butter and Old Fashioneds. So I was intrigued when I saw this advertisement in the Newark (EWR) Delta Sky Club a couple of days ago:

An advertisement for a Peanut Butter Old Fashioned inside the Newark (EWR) Delta Sky Club.

I asked the bartender if the Peanut Butter Old Fashioned was any good. He shrugged and said, “People seem to like them.”

So with that endorsement, I ordered one.

Delta Sky Club Peanut Butter Old Fashioned Review

The Delta Sky Club Peanut Butter Old Fashioned is a premium beverage and not offered as a complimentary cocktail. (My subtotal was $12.80 before the tip. I paid with my Delta SkyMiles® Reserve Business American Express Card; a previous Sky Club beverage charge coded as a Delta purchase and I earned bonus points.)

I thought it interesting that the drink’s advertisement mentions Woodford Reserve Rye Personal Selection. But the bartender poured from a Wood Reserve Distiller’s Select Bourbon.

He mixed simple syrup, the Woodford Bourbon, Angostura Aromatic Cocktail Bitters, and Monin Peanut Butter Syrup. Then he added a couple of orange peel slices.

So how was it?

Good but nothing too special. To be honest, I didn’t really taste much peanut butter — which is disappointing considering that the drink is called a Peanut Butter Old Fashioned.

The orange peel aroma was fairly strong — I don’t know if that offset the peanut buttery goodness. Or maybe the bourbon isn’t as good of a complement to peanut butter syrup as rye?

Don’t get me wrong: I still enjoyed it because as Old Fashioneds go, it’s decent. But I left hoping for more of a peanut butter essence.

Have you tried the Delta Sky Club Peanut Butter Old Fashioned? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the below Comments section!

      Thanks for the comment! Maybe mine was a dud and I need to try it at a different Sky Club.

    I passed on it at JFK last week and opted for the DOM but it is out of stock (of course) as the distribution chain is way behind on the deliveries!!!
