Bourbon Cherry Old Fashioned
While this cocktail is extremely summery with its perfectly sweet summertime cherries, it also feels warm and cozy at the same time.
Ingredients
- 4-6 fresh cherries pitted
- juice from half a lime
- dash of orange bitters
- 1-2 tablespoons honey
- 2 ounces bourbon more or less to taste
- fresh mint and cherries for garnish
Instructions
- Muddle the cherries, lime juice, orange bitters, and honey in a cocktail shaker or glass jar until the cherries are well mashed and have released their juices. Add the bourbon and shake to combine.
- Strain (or not, I leave my cherries in!) into a cocktail glass filled with ice. If desired top with sparking water. Garnish with mint and cherries ...then drink!
