Kentucky Mule
Sweet and crisp with just the right bite, this refreshing take on the Moscow Mule uses Maker's Mark® for added depth. Perfect for those warmer days, but great any time of year. The Kentucky Mule is a pairing as easy to drink as it is to make. The spice of ginger beer compliments the caramel notes of Maker’s Mark® to make a wholly American cocktail inspired by a vodka classic.
This one changed the way we think of bourbon, all because one man changed the way he thought about making it. Bill Samuels, Sr., simply wanted a whisky he would enjoy drinking. Never bitter or sharp, Maker's Mark is made with soft red winter wheat, instead of the usual rye, for a one-of-a-kind, full-flavored bourbon. To ensure consistency, we rotate every barrel by hand and age our bourbon to taste, not time. Each and every bottle of Maker's is still hand-dipped in our signature red wax at our distillery in Loretto, KY., just like Bill, Sr. would have wanted.
As delicious as it is effervescent, even the experienced mixologist will find this easy-to-make classic hard to pass up. The origins of this simple mix trace back to 1890 when a nonalcoholic drink called the Horse's Neck was made with ginger ale, ice and lemon peel. By 1910, bourbon was added to make a Stiff Horse's Neck – later abbreviated back to just Horse's Neck. We still like to simply call it like it is – a Maker's® & Ginger.
The Bourbon Sour is a refined and refreshing blend of sour and sweet. The first printed mention of the Bourbon Sour that anyone is aware of is in the 1862 book "The Bartender's Guide" by Jerry Thomas. This cocktail has had enduring appeal and reaches a new level of refreshing when the sour notes are mixed with Maker’s® sweetness.
With pronounced sugar and mint notes, the Mint Julep is one of our favorite bourbon cocktails and a natural match for warmer weather, horse races and good company. The mint julep became the official drink of the Kentucky Derby in 1938 but was actually invented in Virginia. This Southern favorite nears perfection when bourbon, particularly Maker's Mark, is used as the spirit of choice.
