Bourbon Daisy

This bourbon Daisy is a sweet and tangy way to sip on bourbon.  I’m taking bourbon to new heights!

This bourbon daisy is tangy with a hint of sweetness.  You need this for your next happy hour!

I always considered myself a solid beer drinker.  I mean I LOVE beer.  I’m not talking about the kind of cheap beer you consume in college.  That’s just “barley” water.  I’m talking about amber colored, rich tasting craft style beer.   Nothing says makes happy hour happier than a pint of good beer.

Bourbon, lemons and grenadine make up this bourbon Daisy.  This is such a sophisticated and fun way to enjoy bourbon.

Last year I experimented.  I dabbled in wine and made a few sangria recipes that I loved.  I made a few summery vodka recipes like this Key Lime Vodka Collins and this luscious Blueberry vodka lemonade.  And while I was at it, I made a few Moscow mules too.  Each cocktail was refreshing and delicious.  They inspired me to stick with my new cocktail hobby.

Love bourbon?  I have a new drink for you; this bourbon Daisy! It is sweet, subtle and a unique way to enjoy bourbon.

Then I saw the bourbon ice ball press.  A friend had this nifty little gadget that made the perfect ice sphere which was specifically designed for the bourbon lover. The ice melts uniformly and slowly and keeps each liquor-laden glass perfectly cool.  At the end of the day, it’s just a ball of ice. But nothing is quite as captivating as watching the sphere of ice form.  The day I discovered the ice ball press is the day I discovered bourbon.

I haven’t switched allegiances; beer is still my true love.  But every once in a while a good bourbon cocktail is in order. There is a time and place for a whiskey sour or a pineapple bourbon cocktail. And now, this bourbon Daisy.

This bourbon Daisy is simple and fun.  Lemon juice and grenadine are mixed with bourbon to give you this flirty cocktail!

This cocktail starts with a little bourbon, simple syrup, lemon juice and grenadine that is shaken together.  Tonic water tops off each cocktail.  Orange slices and maraschino cherries are added for garnish.  The bourbon’s deep taste is lightened by the crisp lemon juice and the sweet grenadine.  This bourbon Daisy is sophisticated and playful all at the same time.
