Little Bit Country
0
A shaken bourbon sour with grade B maple syrup, a little maraschino liqueur and a slice of jalapeño for gentle heat. Lemon keeps it sharp, and two kinds of bitters add spice; created by Elayne Werns in New York in 2009.
Elayne Werns created Little Bit Country in 2009 as a drink to warm the winter months. The recipe draws on a childhood beside a nature reserve and summers at an Adirondack dude ranch, which left the creator with a lasting attachment to country life.
