It’s cocktail time again and our resident expert, Sara Ohlin has another great recipe for us to enjoy (you can find her previous posts here and here).
Bourbon Smash
Ingredients
1.5 oz Bourbon
1 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 to 3/4 oz simple syrup (I used Demerara sugar to make my simple syrup because it goes so well with Bourbon)
Fresh mint
Instructions
Put Bourbon, lemon juice, simple syrup and a sprig or two of mint in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, cover and shake for 30 seconds. Strain into any fun cocktail glass, over a big ice cube or crushed ice. Garnish with lemon and mint. Enjoy!
Notes
To make simple syrup mix 1 cup hot water with 1 cup sugar, stir until sugar is dissolved. Keep in the refrigerator in jam jar or air-tight container and use for all your cocktail needs. Keeps for up to one month in the refrigerator.
