DIY-Bacon Bourbon

Okay so you can’t exactly buy this pre-made in stores, but you can make it yourself at home. Just as easy as going into the store and paying for it, possibly even easier! All you need is 10 oz of bourbon and 2 oz of rendered bacon fat. Combine and then freeze for several hours. During the freezing time, the fat will solidify and separate from the liquid, leaving you with a really bacon-y bourbon with no solids floating around. Once it is completely solid, double strain the bourbon and voila! Bacon Bourbon, made in the comfort of your own home. Bacon Bourbon is the star of the Benton’s Old Fashioned at acclaimed cocktail bar PDT in New York City, so it’s definitely worth mixing up and trying for yourself.
