I got married in April and did a makeup trial at Palmetto Bluff a couple weeks before my wedding. Besides the incredible make up artist, the best part was the little drink they gave me to sip on. The Bourbon Milk Punch was divine! It's one of those drinks that is so nice to sip but you don't want to have more than a couple. This week Palmetto Bluff was kind enough to share the recipe on their facebook page. You should give it a try as the weather gets cooler.
Bourbon Milk Punch
1 ½ oz. Makers Mark Bourbon
1 oz Half & Half
1 oz Heavy Cream
a splash Vanilla Extract
1 ½ oz Simple Syrup
and a pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon
Shake well, strain into a snifter 1/2 filled with ice, and garnish with nutmeg.
I have a hard time drinking bourbon when it's warm out. Do you switch to a different drink when the weather changes?
