Bourbon and Sprite

Okay, the Bourbon and Sprite is one of those drinks where the title gives away the recipe. There’s just no intrigue, no suspense – it just is what it is.

And yet simple can be awesome when it comes to cocktails. The lemon-lime and carbonation from the Sprite brings whatever fruity and woody notes your bourbon has. This one does benefit from a better quality bourbon, although there’s no need to use one so good you can enjoy it neat.

Recipe

• 4 ounces bourbon
• 7 ounces Sprite

Fill a highball glass most of the way with ice. Pour in the bourbon first, then fill it the rest of the way with Sprite.
