Servings: 1
- 2 oz clarified Basil Hayden Bourbon
- 0.75 oz lemon juice
- 0.5 oz agave syrup
- 3 dashes peach bitters
- Mint sprig, Lemon twist or peach slice for garnish
In a mixing glass, add clarified bourbon, lemon juice, agave syrup, and peach bitters.
Stir gently with ice for about 20-30 seconds to chill and dilute slightly.
Strain into a chilled coupe glass (or over a large ice cube in a rocks glass for a slower sip).
Express a lemon twist or mint sprig over the drink and place it on the rim, or add a fresh peach slice for a vibrant finish.
Pro Tips
- If you don’t want to clarify the bourbon, use it as-is for a bolder, more pronounced flavor.
- Adjust the agave syrup to taste depending on your sweetness preference.
- For an extra aromatic touch, lightly torch the lemon twist before garnishing.
