2nd #cocktail of #ValentinesDayCocktails: Kentucky Kiss

Our second cocktail this evening is the Kentucky Kiss. This is an unusual blend of bourbon and strawberries which works surprisingly well.

We used Maker’s Mark which works well for this type of cocktail, but you could use another type bourbons.

A tantalizing strawberry and bourbon cocktail (best with Maker's Mark), perfect for Valentine's Day.

 60 ml bourbon
 15 ml lemon juice
 15 ml maple syrup
 Splash of sparkling water
 3 large strawberries

1

In a tumbler, muddle two of the strawberries along with the lemon juice and maple syrup until the strawberries are mashed (slicing them first will help).
