All the cool kids are doing it, and for good reason: cocktails. Whether you’re looking for a new beverage to enjoy with friends and family, or you simply want to branch out from your typical beers and sodas, Bourbon cocktails are the way to go. A little bit of knowledge about what goes into drinks will help you make better choices.
And as anyone who has ever spent time around alcohol knows, just knowing that something is bad for you isn’t enough — you need to know why it’s bad for you! Alcohol shouldn’t be the only thing in your body if you’re drinking it in moderation.
So the next time someone offers you something unhealthy (like a mixed drink), turn it down before they change their mind and ask someone else instead. Here are 5 infused bourbon cocktails that you need to try.
Whiskey Sour
If you’ve never had a whiskey sour, then you’re missing out. This classic cocktail is made with whiskey, sour mix, and a cherry garnish. The sour mix makes this drink sweet and gives it a complex flavour. Whiskey is not only a great bourbon alternative, but it’s also a great mixer.

Bourbon Gingerbread Martini
One of the first things that come to mind when someone mentions bourbon is gingerbread, so it’s no surprise that this drink combines both flavours. Bourbon and gingerbread may sound like an odd combination, but when you add them together you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the outcome. This bourbon cocktail is made with bourbon, ginger beer, and a few other ingredients.
The ginger beer adds a bit of sweetness to the drink and also serves as a bit of a spiced kick in the back of the throat.

Mint Julep
The Kentucky Derby is one of the most famous horse races in the world, and a mint julep is one of the official beverages served after the race.
