There are a lot of strong flavors in this cocktail, and I think the Cointreau enhances it better. Rating : 4 β Iβm going to rate this a four due to the LONG shake time it takes to blend all the strong flavors β make sure you shake it a long time with the ice. The Drink: 2 oz bourbon whiskey β I used Makerβs Mark β a great mixer bourbon for whiskey cocktails 1 oz Cointreau Β½ oz lemon juice 1 tsp simple syrup Garnish with a lemon or lemon peel twist Put some ice into your cocktail shaker, then add the Makerβs Mark, Cointreau, lemon juice & simple syrup. You are going to want to shake this cocktail very well, it has a lot of strong citrus flavors youβll want to blend and break down together as much as possible. Pour into a champagne glass, garnish with a lemon twist & pucker up, this cocktail has a lot of ZING ! Donβt forget to tip your bartender !
