Maple-Bourbon Smash
The slightly smoky sweetness of maple syrup pairs perfectly with oaky bourbon in this quintessential autumn cocktail. For an extra layer of flavor, use a Crafthouse Cocktail Smoking Box to add a smoky finish.
Ingredients
- 2 oz. (30 ml) bourbon
- 1 oz. (30 ml) maple syrup
- 1 oz. (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1 lemon twist
Directions
Pour the bourbon, maple syrup, and lemon juice into a shaker filled with ice. Stir until the drink is thoroughly chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain into a double old-fashioned glass with a large cube of ice.
If desired, using a Crafthouse Cocktail Smoking Box according to the manufacturer's instructions, smoke the cocktail with applewood chips for 15 seconds, or until the desired amount of smokiness is achieved. Garnish with the lemon twist and serve immediately. Makes 1 drink.

I'm a bourbon drinker and this cocktail is uniquely different and delicious. Nothing gets overpowered. A smokey, lemony sweet solidly bourbon treat.

YUMMY & KILLER COCKTAIL
MADE THIS FOR A GROUP OF LUNCHEON LADIES AT MY HOUSE, ABOUT 8, AND EVERYONE NOT ONLY WANTED MORE BUT IT WAS REALLY DELICIOUS AND WORD GOT AROUND TO OTHER HOMES ON THIS COCKTAIL. I ABSOLUTELY USED FRESHLY SQUEEZED LEMON AND ALSO PUT 1 TABLES. OF SODA WHICH CUT IT NICELY.
ALSO, I WOULD ASSUME YOU ALL WOULD KNOW TO USE TRUE MAPLE SYRUP!
