Booze Clues: Bourbon

Due to all the cool people going to Mexico in April, the next Booze Clues will be Thursday, March 31. Taking a look at whiskey again, specifically focusing on Bourbon.

Taste-testing will include:
  • Four Rose Single Barrel (Binny's select)
  • McCallan 10 yr
  • Blade and Bow
  • Wild Turkey
  • Buffalo Trace

For cocktails we will be looking at an old classic, a twist on a mimosa, and a modern cocktail.

2 oz bourbon
1 tsp sugar
4 dashes Angostura bitters
splash club soda
garnish with maraschino cheery and orange wheel

3/4 oz bourbon
3/4 oz simple syrup
1/2 oz lemon juice
1 oz orange juice
top off with champagne

Whirling Tiger

    serve over a coffee ice cube and garnish with an orange peel twist
