How to Make a Starlight Bourbon Sour Cocktail

The folks at Huber’s Orchard, Winery and Distillery have been working the same land from more than 175 years now. This plot of land has been passed down from family to family not just as a job but as a way of life. Over the years they’ve grown to add a winery and distillery. In this latest cocktail they use liquids from both the winery and distillery to make this simple, classic cocktail.

This classic mixes straight bourbon, some tart lemon, sweet syrup and gets topped off with a little bit of color from the wine.
