Bourbon and Maple Bliss Cocktail
Embrace the charm of a classic cocktail evening with our Bourbon and Maple Bliss cocktail. This spirited concoction beautifully marries the robustness of bourbon with the natural sweetness of maple syrup. The aromatic Angostura bitters and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice add a tangy undertone, while the lemon peel garnish lends a hint of citrus aroma. This cocktail has roots in the heart of whiskey country, Kentucky, where bourbon and maple syrup are local staples.
