Description: Eclipse of Kentucky is a sophisticated, bold cocktail that plays with the deep flavors of bourbon and marries them with the sweet, tart notes of blackberry and the warm, spicy undertones of ginger. A hint of lemon adds a refreshing zing, making it a perfect drink for a cool evening or as a classy addition to a dinner party. The drink is finished with a splash of sparkling water to add effervescence and an activated charcoal powder rim for a visually striking presentation that evokes the dark edge of an eclipse.
