Step 1

Mix lemon juice with 2 1/2 cups cold water and 1/4 cup maple syrup.

Step 2

Taste for sweetness. If you like your lemonade sweeter, add the remaining 1/4 cup maple syrup. If the sweetness is just right, add an additional 1/4 cup cold water instead.

Step 3

Stir to mix. This will yield 1 quart of maple lemonade.

Step 4

Fill a glass with ice.

Step 5

Add your desired amount of bourbon (either 1 or 1 1/2 shots).

Step 6

Fill the glass the rest of the way with the maple lemonade.

Chef’s notes

The drink can be adjusted based on personal preference for sweetness and bourbon strength.

The combination of maple syrup and bourbon gives the drink a unique depth of flavor.
