I shy away from sweet drinks and mega-fruity cocktails, and that leaves me with a pretty scarce choice in the brown liquor cocktail department. I love me an Old Fashioned, and even a Sazerac from time to time, but I love coming up with new twists on simplistic bourbon cocktails. So, when Garrison Brothers kindly sent me a bottle of their Single Barrel as a ‘welcome to Texas’ gift, I came up with this gem.
Now, to be clear, this is some special bourbon. Each batch is hand selected by the master distiller and it’s the first single barrel straight bourbon whiskey ever made in Texas. It needs no help at all, but it can’t hurt to gild the lily sometimes. Drawing from GB’s Hill Country roots (if you haven’t been out to their gorgeous distillery in Hye, you need to), I paired it with another classic Hill Country staple, the peach. Don’t get me on a technicality here, I know the Fredericksburg peaches are usually yellow, but for this recipe I went with white peaches and pink peppercorns.
Just enough sweetness to compliment, just enough spice to add dimension, and the right amount of subtlety to pay due respects to the bourbon. Summer sunsets in a glass. Recipe is after the pics.
