"A couple of years ago I discovered the whiskey smash. It changed me.
Different types of mint from my garden, fresh lemons, my favorite whiskey or bourbon at the time- it always came together magically.
Now the school year is coming to an end and I’ve been busy with that, but my gardens are coming up and im getting excited. I threw together a whiskey smash, but the idea of a sweet and spiced smash came nagging. I needed to try it.
I hope you’ll let me make you this drink and enjoy it in the sun with me!
Thank you to Ruddell’s Mill Whiskey and The Bitter Truth Company for the bourbon and falernum! ",

Ingredients:
- Ruddell's Mill Kentucky Straight Bourbon
- The Bitter Truth Golden Falernum
Instructions:
2 oz Ruddells Mill Bourbon
1/2 oz The Bitter Truth Golden Falernum
1/2 oz vanilla simple syrup
5 dashes orange bitters
5 mint leaves
Add all ingredients to a shaker with a few small ice cubes and one large. Make sure you slap the mint leaves. For the lemon, peel it over the shaker, express the peel and drop it in. Then cut the wedge where you peeled, squeeze, and drop it in. Shake hard to muddle and double strain into an ice-filled glass with a mint crown.
Enjoy!
