The Cask Smasher

The Cask Smasher

2oz Bourbon
1oz Honey Simple
4 Mint Leaves  
2 Lemon Wedges

In your Shaker or pint glass add the lemon wedges and mint leaves. Muddle until mint breaks apart into small pieces. Combine the bourbon and honey, fill halfway with ice and shake HARD for 15-20 seconds. in a rock glass fill with ice and strain the cocktail over the ice. you should be able to see little flecks of mint floating throughout the drink. By using a cask strength bourbon you retain all of the amazing intense flavors of the bourbon without over diluting the cocktail even though its being shaken well.
