Happy Friday, Friends!
In honor of my Husband hanging out in Kentucky, Land of Bourbon, I thought I’d dedicate this weeks “Martini Moment” to just that. I’m bringing you two very fast, very delicious whiskey cocktails. The first is a super easy Mule.
what you do:
In a copper mug, add ice, bourbon (I used Weller Special Reserve) and fresh lime juice. Then stir.
Top with Ginger beer (I always use Fever Tree), and garnish with fresh mint (taken from my patio).
Enjoy!
Next up…
Not that I don’t love a Mule, however, this one of the two was surly my favorite…
what you do:
Add whiskey (I used Jack Daniels Single Barrel), lemon juice, triple sec, and simple syrup to a shaker full of ice.
Shake, shake, shake!
Strain into a glass also full of ice, and then add lemon-lime soda.
Garnish with fresh lemon.
Enjoy!
I had so much fun making these drinks. I usually don’t use bourbon when making cocktails but this reminds me that I should do so more often.
