Cocktail Of The Day- Expat

Cocktail Of The Day (because it’s always cocktail hour somewhere in the world). This week we return to the modern classics with a little bourbon based cocktail from Lauren Schell created at Little Bird in New York. When Blair and I first read the recipe on Eater, we were shocked that this wasn’t a cocktail before 2009. It’s so simple and really delicious and quite perfect for summer evenings!
