Default expanding an off center hole

Hello RCM'rs.

If you have an existing 1/4" dia hole (1/2" deep), and want to drill
a new hole of 1/2" dia and offset it .040" from the center of the 1/4
hole but you only have a drill press how would you do it?

Right now I'm thinking of trying a drill bushing correctly oriented
over the part and just trying a twist drill but was hoping there is a
better way ( I would normally try plunge cut will mill).
TIA for any comments.
