The perfect bourbon cocktail to chill down with on a hot summer day.
Smash cocktails are the perfect warm-weather drink because they use plenty of ice, fruit, herbs, and the spirit of your choice to create a cool and refreshing drink. This bourbon smash cocktail gives a nod to both the whiskey sour and the mint julep as it uses both lemon and mint to craft a drink that greets you with a wonderful aroma and even better taste.
