Notes
Make a Bloody Molly. Use Irish Whiskey instead of bourbon. This will have a more malty taste but I bet it would be really good!
Use rye whiskey. Rye whiskey has a more peppery flavor than bourbon. Its signature spicy finish would be excellent in the Bloody Derby.
Make it non-alcoholic. Skip the alcohol or use a whiskey alternative to make an alcohol-free cocktail.
Try bourbon-smoked and barrel-aged ingredients! Try one (or all) of these bourbon barrel foods in your drink:
