BUCKAROO
1 ½ measures bourbon
Dash of Angostura bitters
Coca-cola
Howdy partner! You are going to love tonight’s cocktail. It’s
called the BUCKAROO. Saddle up and sit a spell and I’ll make you one quicker
than a horse takes to oats. First, I’ll put some Knob Creek bourbon and a few
dashes of Angostura bitters into a tall cocktail glass that I’ve half-filled
with crushed ice. I’ll give it a stir, then top it off with good old fashioned coca-cola. I’ll be sure to serve
the cowboy cocktail with a swizzle stick for continual stirring.
If you regularly
drink jack and coke, or you’re saddle sore, you will love the strong BUCKAROO. Since
it uses bourbon and bitters, it’s really just a distant cousin to those tired
old jack and coke or rum and coke cocktails. A more fancy pants, city slicker
cousin. The bitters really come through in the BUCKAROO cocktail, and they give
it a distinctive flavor that I took a mighty fine liking to. If you don’t have
bitters in the house, don’t bother. And if you use good bourbon,you’ll ride
into the sunset a happy cowpoke.
Drink Up^
Cocktail Connie
