Last weekend, I was helping a friend out with the 1st Annual LA Fried Chicken Fest - 9 celebrated LA chefs and 8 different kinds fabulous fried chicken. I can't eat chicken now for a little while, but I was still craving one of the cocktails that was served there. Knob Creek was one of the sponsors and was doling out two different kinds of trash can punch (you gotta love punch served out of a lined trash can), with my favorite being the Knob Creek and Watermelon. This two ingredient cocktail was the perfect libation to wash down hot, fried and sometimes spicy food. I happened to have a bunch of watermelon left over from making these Watermelon & Vodka Popsicles, so I added a handful of pieces into the blender and strained out some juice. I did the measurements for one drink, but just multiply as needed and make a whole pitcher...or trash can of it.
Bourbon & Watermelon Cocktail
Ingredients:
- 2 oz bourbon (I used Bulleit, because I didn't have any Knob Creek on hand)
- 3 oz watermelon juice (be sure to run the juice through a fine mesh strainer to get any large chunks out)
- Strain into a chilled coupe glass.
