Bourbon Citrus Cocktail

Who says whiskey is for old people? Though many of them like the taste, so does the rest of the population. Especially bourbon. The smooth, strong and hot taste of bourbon is just my favourite. A lot of interesting cocktails can be made with this liquor, especially the Bourbon Citrus Cocktail, with the srong flavours of Bourbon, orange, and lemon.

This drink is pretty much avoided due to it’s similarity to the Old Fashioned – but we promise, it’s a tad bit better, in taste and looks. The Bourbon Citrus Cocktail promises a sweet yet citrusy taste but doesn’t dilute the strong taste of bourbon.

One good thing about whiskey cocktails is that they are really strong and give you just the right buzz. Almost like getting straight to the point, but with great taste as a bonus. So follow our directions and without further adieu, learn how to make this Bourbon Citrus Cocktail.
