DOTW: Blueberry Whiskey Buck

It will be spring in just a couple of days, and if you know me, I always connect my cocktails with the four seasons. This one fits into winter, as well as spring! It’s the perfect drink for the change of weather. Berries and lemons will keep the doctor away, that is a fact. There’s nothing wrong with a little bit of Bourbon added to lovely combination of fruits and Ginger Beer in my opinion. Get a little fruity this weekend….

What you’ll need:

  • 2 oz Redemption Bourbon
  • 1/2 tsp simple syrup (or more, depending on your sweet tooth)
  • 15 fresh blueberries
  • 1 lemon wedge
  • 1 1/2 oz ginger beer
  • more blueberries and a lemon slice for garnish

In a cocktail shaker, muddle the blueberries. Add the juice of a lemon wedge and the bourbon and simple syrup to the berries. Add ice and shake well. Fill a cocktail glass with ice, then strain the bourbon mixture into the glass. Top off with ginger beer, and garnish with berries and a lemon wedge.

Cheers!
