Method
Bourbon
Measure and pour
Measure 2 oz Jim Beam bourbon with a jigger and pour it into a rocks glass or a Glencairn glass.
Add ice (optional)
If you prefer chilled bourbon, add one large ice cube or a few ice cubes to the glass. Large cube preferred to chill with minimal dilution.
Optional splash
If desired, add a teaspoon of water or a splash of sparkling water to open the aroma and flavors. Stir gently once with a bar spoon (about 3–4 gentle rotations).
Optional serving / garnish
Serve immediately and enjoy neat, on the rocks, or with the small splash of water according to preference.
