Whisky Cherry Snow Cone

A playful twist on a childhood classic, the Whisky Cherry Snow Cone brings grown-up flavor to shaved ice. Maker’s Mark bourbon blends beautifully with cherry, lemon and a dash of bitters (because, balance) to create a cocktail that’s equal parts refreshing and nostalgic. Best enjoyed with a spoon, a straw, and a little sunshine.
