Bourbon Renewal -- Variation #2
I find myself making this Bourbon Renewal variation constantly. That rich, jammy blackcurrant from a proper crème de cassis creates a brilliant counterpoint to the bourbon’s spice and the fresh lemon’s bite. It's a perfectly balanced, ridiculously tasty sour that’s always a winner.
