Lucille Ball, a beloved actress and comedy icon, had an affinity for her pre-dinner bourbon. She embraced three varieties: on the rocks, with club soda, and with a touch of water.
Bourbon on the rocks offers a cooling sensation that mellows the intensity of the spirit’s nose. A splash of water dilutes it and lowers the proof while allowing subtler flavors.
For a bit of effervescence, club soda is a refreshing option. The bubbly soda adds a kick to the spirit, enhancing its crispness to create an invigorating drinking experience.
