Serving Size

Equipment

A shaker is essential for mixing the ingredients thoroughly.

I also use a jigger to measure the perfect amount of each ingredient.
You’ll want a sturdy muddler to blend the flavors nicely.
A strainer is necessary to keep ice and bits out of the final drink.

You will also need a rocks glass to serve your drink.
Prepare some ice cubes for chilling.
Lastly, a stirring spoon is handy for a quick mix at the end.

Ingredients

Here’s what I use for one cocktail:

2 ounces bourbon
1 ounce maple syrup
½ ounce fresh lemon juice
Soda water to top
Ice cubes

For a garnish, I love using a slice of orange and a cinnamon stick. It adds a nice extra layer of flavor and a bit of style. The fresh lemon juice gives a little tang that balances the sweet syrup nicely.

Instructions

Here’s how I make it:

Fill the shaker with ice. Add the bourbon, maple syrup, and lemon juice.
Shake it up well until everything is chilled. I love this part because it’s quick but makes a big difference.
Strain the mix into a rocks glass over fresh ice.

Top it off with soda water. This brings a light fizz that I find refreshing.
Finally, garnish with your slice of orange and cinnamon stick. 🍊

Give it a gentle stir with your spoon, and it’s ready to enjoy.

Notes

Feel free to tweak the ingredients based on your taste. If you like it sweeter, add a bit more maple syrup. For more tartness, squeeze in extra lemon juice. Bourbon brands vary, so try a few to find your favorite combo.

Don’t have a muddler? No problem! Use the back of a spoon to mash flavors. Also, experimenting with flavored soda can add a fun twist. Share your creations and what tweaks you made. I’d love to hear your ideas, and connecting with others is always a delight! 😊
