September always brings one of our favorite celebrations: Bourbon Heritage Month. Here are some of our favorite bourbon cocktails to toast the occasion.

The Boulevardier
A cousin of the classic Negroni, the Boulevardier subs in bourbon for gin and can be sipped up or on the rocks.Shipwreck
We wouldn’t mind being marooned with this refreshing mix of bourbon, aged rum, citrus and mint in hand.

Attorney Privilege
Bourbon takes the driver’s seat (Angostura and almond syrup ride shotgun) in this nuanced three-ingredient sipper.

California Bubble Bath
Freshen up with this bourbon-spiked bouquet of fresh lavender, citrus and Cynar.

Bufala Negra
Bourbon + basil = a match made in cocktail heaven. Add in sweetened balsamic and a splash of ginger beer for a spritzer you won’t soon forget.
