How To Celebrate National Bourbon Day
June 14th, National Bourbon Day, is a big deal around here. While we generally consider ourselves to be seasonal sippers (rosé and white wine in summer, red wine in winter, etc.), bourbon is one of those spirits that we’ll enthusiastically enjoy all year round. As relative experts on the topic, we’re offering up some of our favorite classic and not so classic cocktail recipes, as well as and intro to some of our favorite bourbon cocktails in DC. Enjoy!
