Instructions

Dive into the essence of a sultry summer night with the Midnight Julep Smash. This innovative cocktail combines the rich warmth of bourbon with the tart sweetness of blackberries and a citrus hint from lemon, creating a beautifully balanced drink. The addition of Peychaud's bitters and a touch of Luxardo cherry liqueur infuses it with a complex, aromatic depth, while the Luxardo cherry serves as the perfect garnish to this exquisite beverage. Ingredients: - 2 oz Bourbon - 1/2 oz Luxardo Cherry Liqueur - 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/2 oz Simple Syrup (equal parts sugar and water dissolved together) - 4-5 Fresh Blackberries - 2-3 dashes Peychaud's Bitters - 1 Luxardo Cherry for garnish - Extra blackberries for garnish - Crushed Ice Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the blackberries with the simple syrup and lemon juice to release their juice and flavor. 2. Add the bourbon, Luxardo cherry liqueur, and Peychaud's bitters to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a double old-fashioned glass filled with crushed ice, ensuring to press down on the blackberries to extract all the juices. 5. Garnish with a skewer of Luxardo cherry and extra blackberries. 6. Serve immediately and enjoy the deep, refreshing flavors of the Midnight Julep Smash.
