Smooth Bourbon is a Fall Favorite

One thing I enjoy about bourbon is the warm smooth taste as it goes down. It is especially nice in the fall and winter. 

This recipe combines a mellow bourbon with pure maple syrup for a beautiful combination that is definitely pleasing to the palate.

I have never been a fan of the Dirty Martini. Probably because I don’t like Vermouth or olives!

I prefer my Martini’s sweet and this recipe is just that! The bonus for this one is caramel is one of my personal favorite sweet indulgences.
