Re: Your favorite Bourbon-based mix?
Maybe it's as much nostalgia as anything, but a well proportioned bourbon and coke on the rocks still works for me.

bourbon, or indeed any whisk(e)y mixed with gin is always good

Re: Your favorite Bourbon-based mix?
I tend to adhere to the rule "bourbon for sipping, rye for mixing," so I only mix bourbon with ice. Rye manhattans, sours, and old fashioneds are all quite tasty.

Re: Your favorite Bourbon-based mix?
have to second the sazerac. had one before dinner last night, and it wasn't even that good, but it was pretty damn good, if you know what i'm saying.

Re: Your favorite Bourbon-based mix?
the old fashioned not only my favorite bourbon-based drink, it is, without rival, my single favorite cocktail in the world.

Aside from neat/rocks, the manhattan rules the roost for me. The sazerac is one hell of a drink but I haven't been able to jump on board just yet.

I like it in a pie.
Kind of like a pecan pie, but with chocolate chips and the aforementioned bourbon. Just don't call it a "Derby Pie" or you may get sued.
