Okay, here’s my take on the bourbon cream drinks based on my recent experiment:
So, I’ve been seeing this “bourbon cream” thing popping up everywhere lately, and my curiosity finally got the better of me. I mean, bourbon? Good. Cream? Good. Together? Had to find out. I decided to dive in and make my own little concoction.
First off, I grabbed my bottle of bourbon. Nothing too fancy, just a decent mid-shelf one I had lying around. I also got some heavy cream from the fridge. I read online that sugar was necessary so, I got that too from the cabinet.
I poured about 2 oz of the bourbon into a shaker – you know, the kind bartenders use. Then, I added a splash of vanilla extract. I figured it couldn’t hurt, right? A little vanilla always makes things better, at least for me.
- Bourbon
- Heavy Cream
- Sugar
- Vanilla extract
Next, I poured in about 1 oz of the heavy cream and a half-ounce of simple syrup. If you don’t have simple syrup, you can easily make it by dissolving sugar in hot water, but I happened to have some on hand from my last cocktail experiment. I filled the shaker with ice and gave it a good, vigorous shake for about 15 seconds. I wanted it to be nice and cold. Strained it into a chilled glass, one of those short, wide ones. You know, the kind that makes you feel fancy even if you’re just wearing sweatpants.
The Result
And let me tell you, folks, it was pretty darn good! The bourbon had that nice, warm kick, but the creaminess really smoothed it out. It was like a grown-up milkshake, but with a nice, warm, fuzzy feeling. It was rich and tasty. You got that little vanilla sweetness in there too, which is nice.
I can see why people dig this stuff. It’s simple, it’s tasty, and it’s easy to make. You can play around with the ratios and add other flavors, too. I’m already thinking about trying it with a little maple syrup next time or maybe a dash of cinnamon. I also learned that you can use it as a base for other drinks, or even in baking. I can totally see myself drizzling this over some vanilla ice cream or adding it to a brownie mix. The possibilities are endless, people!
Anyway, that’s my bourbon cream adventure. It was a fun little experiment, and I ended up with a tasty drink. If you’re looking for something new to try, give it a shot. You might just discover your new favorite treat! Cheers!
