    A lot of bourbon lovers believe that the best way to enjoy their bourbon is neat, but why not have a little fun with it, and kick it up a notch? There are so many fun ways to enjoy your bourbon, and a bourbon smash is one of them. What is a bourbon smash you ask? It simply means that before adding the bourbon, you "smash" together some sweetener (we used homemade simple syrup found here), herbs or fruit, then add bourbon. Pretty easy, right? The possibilities for bourbon smashes are endless, and I'll be testing all kinds of combinations and sharing the best ones here on Pour Me a Cocktail all summer long. It's hard work, I know, but somebody has to do it ;)

    What's in a Blackberry Bourbon Smash?

    2 ounces of bourbon

    1 ounce of club soda

    ½ ounce of lime juice

    ¾ ounces of simple syrup (try this Homemade Simple Syrup)

    3-4 blackberries

    4-5 fresh mint leaves

    ice

      […] If you’re looking for a classic bourbon drink, that’s not too sweet, go for a classic whiskey sour. It’s just your favorite whiskey mixed with sweet and sour mix, served over ice with a cherry garnish. If you like a little fizz, swap out the sweet and sour mix with ginger ale and you’ve got yourself a whiskey ginger! To add a fruit element, blackberries go great with bourbon and add a sweetness to your favorite bourbon cocktail. If that sounds good, try this Blackberry Bourbon Smash. […]
