Chamomile And Bourbon Come Together For A Unique Old Fashioned
BY BRIAN UDALL
The Old Fashioned is a spirit-forward cocktail, and a chamomile infusion plays to its warm hearth vibes, while its soothing properties make it a perfect end-of-the-night sipper.
The best option would be to infuse the bourbon with the chamomile by taking however much bourbon you want to infuse and pouring it into a mason jar.
Depending on how much alcohol you're using, take one or two chamomile tea bags and put them in the bourbon. Let it steep for about five days, and voila, chamomile-infused bourbon.
If you want to taste it before committing a big batch of whiskey to the experiment, make the regular Old Fashioned cocktail and steep the tea bag in the glass for a few minutes.
You can also make actual chamomile tea and then combine it with the drink. Whichever route you choose, you'll have an incredible-tasting beverage to enjoy.
