At the point when I was in Maine this late spring, I visited the Wiggly Bridge Distillery in York. It was a beautiful New England evening; there wasn't a cloud in the sky, the temperature was sufficiently blistering to be perfect, and I was agreeably brimming with lobster and salty seaside air.
At the point when I read through Wiggly Bridge's art mixed drink menu, I knew in a split second what I would arrange that night: the Bourbon Peach Smash. Fruity, sweet, fiery, it was the ideal taste before making a beeline for the sea shore for a night around the fire.
Before I left, I got a jug of Wiggly Bridge's honor winning whiskey so I could make a York-enlivened Bourbon Peach Smash for my companions. A sample of excursion at home!
As I've been finding out about the crush, I've understood that while it's a mid year staple on many art mixed drink menus, it's a beverage without exacting definition. The fixings are pretty generally open to ad lib, however there are a couple of steady components.
- 1 ounce brown sugar simple syrup (see note)
- 1/2 large peach , diced (about 1/2 cup)
- 3-4 large mint leaves
- 2 ounces bourbon
- splash ginger beer or seltzer water , chilled
- ice
- fresh mint and peach slices , for garnish
- Add peaches, mint leaves, and simple syrup to the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Gently muddle to release the peach juices and mint oils. (Over-muddling the mint will cause it to become bitter.)
- Add bourbon, fill the shaker with ice, and shake until well-chilled. Strain into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice.
- Top with ginger beer or seltzer water. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and a peach slice.
