Name: Bourbon Smash
Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 1.67 oz Bourbon; 1 dash Angostura® Bitters; 2.33 oz Cranberry Juice; 1 slice Lime; 5 Raspberries; 0.5 tsp Granulated Sugar

A bright, fruity take on a whiskey smash where tart cranberry and fresh raspberries lift the caramel warmth of bourbon, balanced by a squeeze of lime and a hint of sugar. It arrives ruby-red and rustic in an Old-Fashioned glass with muddled fruit and bitters adding aromatic complexity and a slightly pulpy texture. Great for anyone who likes fruit-forward bourbon cocktails that are refreshing yet still spirit-driven.
