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
  • Β½ 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! 😊
