Homemade Sweet Tea Bourbon

Today we have invented our own sweet tea bourbon recipe using Buffalo Trace Bourbon. The recipe we created utilizes: 1 1/2 cups Water, 1 1/2 cups Sugar, 2 Tbsp. Honey, 4 Tea Bags and a Bottle of Bourbon. We build simple syrup with the honey, sugar and water and then, after it cools, add the bourbon and tea bags and let sit for 4-hours or "to taste."

What temperature does the alcohol start to evaporate cuz couldn't you steep the bags straight into the bourbon along with the honey and bring it to temp without boiling out the alcohol? Either way this was pretty awesome

@WonderExperience I don't know the exact temp, but if you have a thermometer you can try, I didn't go to that level.

According to a wiki on firefly products buffalo trace is the bourbon they partnered up with to make the sweet tea bourbon.

@nehctik1986 Really? NICE. I picked a winner :)

you could of subbed in some barenjager for the honey, maybe some agave nectar instead as well.. other than that this is sick

[everydaydrinkers]

@MC1796 yeah, my goal was to keep the single spirit in there just so I had some control over full alcohol amount. But, perhaps barenjager with sweet tea bourbon and some other component in a cocktail...
