Foodie fridays: blueberry bourbon cooler, finished with fresh mint

“Embark on a flavor journey this Foodie Friday with our enticing feature: Blueberry Bourbon Cooler with Fresh Mint. Discover the reliable blend that elevates your weekend refreshment experience.”

Today, we are headed west.

Off to a city in sunny, southern California that we have never been before, Temecula. Temecula is located about an hour north of San Diego in beautiful SoCal wine country. The reason for our visit is to attend the Big Traveling Potluck.

We are jazz hands excited about attending this food blog conference. Not only do we get to talk food the entire weekend we get to room with our two favorite peeps, M-squared (Megan and Meagan)!! Not to mention the jaw-dropping scenery and endless supply of giggle juice.

However, before we jet across half the country and surround myself with all things vino; let’s take a minute and talk about a new favorite spirit of ours – bourbon. For us, bourbon is a newly acquired taste. Mr. B has always been a bourbon man at heart. But we didn’t jump on the bourbon bandwagon until we opened a family-owned restaurant back in Kansas called Bourbon and Baker.

After learning the ins-outs-and whathaveyou’s about bourbon from our brother-in-law, we discovered that bourbon can be just as rare as wine. Case in point: have you ever had Stranahan’s? More than likely, probably not. It’s distilled and distributed only in Colorado. At $60 a bottle you bet your sweet tookus this stuff better be legit, and it is.

We used it as the main star in this blueberry bourbon cooler with fresh mint. The warmth of the whisky mixed with the cool flavors of the blueberry and mint, makes this drink our official summer go-to!

Now, off to the Golden State.
