Celebrate in style with this holiday beverage. Peach preserves (like you would spread on biscuits) are the secret ingredients in this Peach Bourbon Sours. Seedless blackberry, apricot, or ginger preserves may be substituted. I found this recipe in Southern Living magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting this for safe keeping. Ingredients:
1/2 cup peach preserves |
1/2 cup hot water |
1 cup bourbon or 1 cup whiskey, plus 2 tbl |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
lemon slice, fresh basil sprigs |
Directions:
1. Whisk together peach preserves and hot water in a glass pitcher until preserves are dissolved. Whisk in bourbon and lemon juice.
2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add one-third of bourbon mixture; cover with lid, and shake until throughly chilled. Pour over ice into 2 (8-12oz) glasses. Repeat procedure with remaining bourbon mixture. Garnish, if desired. Serve drinks immediately.
3. Quick Ideas: Add garnishes to match or complement the preserves flavor you choose. Fresh blackberries and mint sprigs look great on glasses of Blackberry-Bourbon Sours, while lemon and kiwifruit slices are fancy touches to Ginger-Bourbon Cocktails.
