WHISKEY SMASH

whiskey smash cocktail

The Whiskey Smash is a great drink for warm days and for those who claim they don’t like whiskey!  It’s smooth with a nice tart/sweet balance and enough whiskey that it doesn’t get lost with the other ingredients.

Recipe

2 oz Bourbon or Rye

1/2 oz Simple Syrup

1/4 Lemon, cut into wedges

5-6 mint leaves

Muddle the mint with lemon wedges in a shaker.  Add simple syrup, whiskey and ice and shake until frosty.  Double-strain into rocks glass with one large ice cube.
