Drink of the Month – Whiskey Smash

A drink with the word ‘Smash’ in it has to be good and believe me, this one is delicious. If you are a fan of Whiskey, you have to try this drink.
Here is the recipe for your own smash hit…
- 2-3 pieces of lemon
- sprig of mint leaves
- 3/4 oz simple syrup
- 1 1/2 oz Bourbon (I used Makers Mark)
Some people add 1 oz of water, but I did not add any. The ice will suffice.
Muddle the lemon pieces, mint leaves, and simple syrup in the bottom of a mixing glass. Add your Bourbon, shake, and strain into an old-fashioned glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
If you want to try a Whiskey Smash at a Boston establishment, go to Drink or Eastern Standard. You will not be disappointed.
Cheers!
