- Please note that nutrition facts are an estimate and can vary widely based on amounts and specific types used.
- I've tried a few types of whiskey in this recipe, but my favorite is Bulleit bourbon. If you're using a different type of bourbon, that's okay! Just choose one that isn't too expensive or complex.
- Be gentle with the mint when washing it and garnishing. Roughing it up too much will give your drink a slightly bitter flavor.
