Bourbon cocktails that have a simple syrup, a bitter or juice, and soda water on top.
Cocktail Colin says:
If you’re looking for bourbon cocktails that feature simple syrup, a form of bitter or juice, and soda water on top, then the Whiskey Collins might be the ideal choice for you. This cocktail is a refreshing blend that includes sugar syrup for sweetness, lemon juice for a sharp zest, and is topped off with soda water for a sparkling finish. Additionally, the addition of Angostura Bitters ties all the flavors together, creating a delightful mix of sweet, sour, and bitter tastes.
The Old Southerner is another excellent option, providing a unique twist on classic bourbon cocktails. This drink combines sugar syrup for its sweet component, a dash of orange bitters to add complexity, and lemon-lime soda for a fizzy touch. The result is a balanced cocktail that is both sweet and tangy, perfect for those who appreciate a layered flavor profile.
Both of these cocktails offer a splendid combination of ingredients that bring out the rich notes of bourbon, making them great choices for any bourbon enthusiast. Enjoy experimenting with these recipes to find the perfect blend that suits your taste!
