By richmondglobal online
The Bourbon Peach Smash is an exciting twist on the classic cocktail, introducing ripe peach to the traditional blend of whiskey, lemon, and mint.
Ingredients
- 2 ounces of Old Forester bourbon whiskey Old Forrester
- 1 ripe peach, pitted and quartered

- 1/2 ounce of simple syrup
- 4-6 fresh mint leaves

How to make
- In a cocktail shaker, muddle the peach quarters and mint leaves.
- This will extract the peach juice and the aroma of the mint.
