Kentucky Colonel Cocktail

Winter is almost here so I decided to try a Whiskey cocktail tonight.  I found the 'Kentucky Colonel Cocktail' on page 109 in my Bartender.s Guide.

The recipe:

1/2 oz Benedictine
1 1/2 oz Kentucky Bourbon (Old Forester)

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.  Add a twist of lemon peel. (As you can tell from the picture, I used a slice of orange as the garnish)

This cocktail was very good, the Benedictine tempers the taste of the Bourbon very nicely.

Cheers!
