Ginger Bourbon Fizz

Ginger Bourbon Fizz

After going to Hard Water (an American Whiskey Bar) this past weekend, I’ve been inspired to whip up some bourbon based drinks.  With the 80 degree temps it was important to find a drink that was also refreshing, introduce the – Ginger Bourbon Fizz.

  • 2 oz Bourbon 
  • 1 splash (about a Tablespoon) of ginger simple syrup
  • Juice of 1/2 a lemon
  • 1/2 cup of Club Soda

Ginger Bourbon Fizz Ingredients

Fill a glass with ice and add bourbon, syrup and lemon juice.  Stir and top with club soda. Enjoy!
