Anyone Can Make This Simple 3-Ingredient Bourbon Cocktail

Making a proper cocktail is a complex process. However, the gold rush is one simple, three-ingredient cocktail that proves that even simple recipes can be delicious.

The gold rush is a blend of bourbon, lemon juice, and honey that is served over ice. The proportion of each ingredient varies based on recipe and personal preference.

It's sweet but not saccharine, thanks to the brightness of the added lemon, and there is no pesky muddling required. It's a perfect cocktail for those who don't enjoy gin or vodka.

To make the drink, first mix some boiling water in with your honey to thin it and ensure even mixing. Then, add the ingredients to a shaker with some ice and shake until cold.
