The Blackberry Bourbon Smash is a delightfully fruity cocktail that can be enjoyed all year round. The warmth of the American Eagle Tennessee Bourbon 4 Year Old is a surprising contrast to the sweet and citrus flavours of the fruit. By muddling the mint leaves, their refreshing taste and aroma is amplified and it’s easy to see why the Bourbon Smash is the whiskey drinker’s mojito!
The difficulty rating of the Blackberry Bourbon Smash is a 4/10. This is due to the muddling process required to really bring out the juices and oils of the mint leaves, lime wedges and blackberries.
