What to mix Bourbon with?

[bullhead44]

My wife is more a bourbon fan than I am, but I do like a snort now and then. We like it with unsweet tea as well. She refers to it a sweet tea. Jack only for us. Single barrel barrel proof when I can find it, but its hard to find.

3 fingers high of JD and one handful of crushed ice. I'm JD only now when I partake.

My taste changed and don't enjoy the others or Canadian efforts either.

Same here on any Canadian whiskeys.

Small splash of H2O or an ice cube.

Bullet Rye old fashion's are tasty.

Being a beer drinker all my life, I'm not good at "sippin whiskey". So I put some ice and a splash of water in mine in a 20oz coffee cup. I accidentaly discovered one day that a splash of Texas Pecan coffee left over in the cup made the bourbon REEEEEAAAALY smooth. I'll do sweet tea also, when it's hot out.


When I do set down with a good bourbon, it's 2 cubes.

So sounds like ice is the best. Never been a whiskey drinker, the reason for asking.

Some bourbons I like with a little ice, others I like with a couple of splashes of water to release more flavors. Aside from that, I don't add anything else.

Recommend trying each to see if you prefer one over the other.

Enjoy!

Ice, Neat, or OF. That’s is all

Was waiting to see a Sweet Tea recommendation. For a good mixer with what I call a riding around the ranch drink. Love me some Red Diamond with my Weller or Makers. Turned a couple people on it. And they now do it as well.

If I’m drinking my good stuff. Large round Ice Cube. Bourbon. Let it sit for a few min. And enjoy.

I’m a neat or small sliver of ice fan, don’t like to proof my bourbon down,I only buy 90+ proof or better.

Tin Cup isn't he best for sipping whiskey, although I have a bottle.

I highly suggest try some others, and buy smaller amount till you figure out what you like.

I recommend starting with:

Jameson
Texas Ranger
Pendelton Midnight

A little water and ice is the correct answer. Need a good bourbon as well.

[Dale Moser]

Red Diamond is the bomb.

I like diet ginger ale. Not too sweet like 7-up.
