The funny matter is, I’1000 non a large difficult liquor person. Or drinker, actually. Unless it’s tequila inwards a margarita or carmine wine!

Bourbon makes me think of my mom in addition to grandma because they both love it. They’ve always been into bourbon as well as cokes for as long equally I can retrieve, as well as these bourbon slushies that my aunt makes.
Totally making these for them!
