The BVC Southern Charm



As the temperature starts to rise and summer is on the horizon, the BVC Southern Charm offers a smooth transition of the seasons.  As peaches become plentiful this is a drink to look forward to.  Not to worry, for those who are not a fan of bourbon you will be converted!


The BVC Southern Charm

Ingredients
1 peach
1/2 lemon juiced
1/2 oz Domaine De Canton (French ginger liqueur)
3/4 oz Cointreau
1-1.5 oz Peach Liqueur 
2.5 oz Bourbon (Knob Creek is a favorite brand)**
1 teaspoon honey

**Ingredient Note:  Instead of using bourbon you can always use your favorite whiskey.


1.  Cut peach into thicker slices reserving one smaller slice for garnish.  Add peach slices and lemon juice to cocktail shaker and muddle.

2.  Add rest of ingredients to shaker.  Fill rest of shaker with ice.  Shake vigorously for a good 20-30 seconds.  

3.  Fill a rocks glass with ice.  Strain bourbon mixture into rocks glass.  Garnish with the peach slice that you reserved.

4.  Enjoy!
