Ingredients

Serves 8
  • Buffalo Trace310 ml
  • Angostura Aromatic Bitters10 ml
  • Black Walnut Bitters10 ml
  • Simple Syrup 2:1330 ml
  • Water1230 ml

Method

  1. 1

    Combine the bourbon and bitters

    Add the Buffalo Trace, Angostura aromatic bitters, and black walnut bitters to a large pitcher or mixing container.

  2. 2

    Add syrup and water

    Pour in the 2:1 simple syrup and water, then stir well until the batch looks completely uniform.

  3. 3

    Chill and churn

    Transfer the mixture to your slush machine and run until it reaches a smooth, icy consistency.

  4. 4

    Serve cold

    Pour into chilled glasses and enjoy right away while the texture is at its best.

Tips

  • Chill the bourbon, syrup, and water before mixing to help the batch reach its ideal texture faster.
  • Stir the mixture thoroughly so the syrup and bitters are evenly distributed before adding it to the machine.
  • For the best pour, let the machine run until the texture looks smooth and spoonable rather than watery.
  • Serve in chilled rocks glasses to keep the drink colder longer.
  • If desired, finish each glass with the optional orange peel or cherry from the original inspiration.
