Lazy, hazy summer days are made for enjoying an easy-to-drink punch.  This one uses fresh strawberry and lemon to give a fresh and bright flavor to Bulleit Bourbon.  A Sprite topper kicks the lemon-lime flavor up and adds some sweetness and sparkle; if you prefer, substituting club soda is an option to limit the amount of sugar in the drink.

Recipe:

• 2 oz Bulleit Bourbon
• ½ oz Fresh Lemon Juice
• ¾ oz Simple Syrup
• 3 Lemon Wheels
• 4 Strawberry Wheels
• Sprite

Instructions:

In a pint glass (or muddle glass) muddle together lemon wheels, strawberries and simple syrup. Then add in fresh lemon juice and bourbon. Shake cocktail for roughly 8-10 seconds. Strain into glass with fresh ice and top with Sprite.
