Whisky Ginger Smash
In October, our tastes turn toward warm spices like cinnamon, clove, and, of course, ginger. Clear spirits and rum that dominate summertime cocktails get pushed to the back of the bar, and whiskies come front and center. And that brings us to the Whiskey Ginger Smash. It’s a delightful combination of bourbon, ginger liqueur, and lemon juice, shaken until it’s too cold to hold! Here’s a toast to cooler days ahead!
