It’s getting hot out there… which calls for only one thing… BBQ!

Whether you hosting in your garden or gathering around a disposable BBQ in the park, it’s the season to get those coals lit and enjoy the sun with your buddies.

We can’t think of too many better ways to bask in the sun than with some tasty, charred meats and vegetables, washed down with a refreshing Maker’s Mark 46 Mint Julep.

This deep South classic hits the mark on a hot day combining fresh mint and a touch of sugar with a generous pour of Maker’s Mark 46 and heaps of crushed ice.

Maker's Mark 46 is a creamy and spicy bourbon and is a whiskey perfect for Mint Juleps, Old-fashioneds and sipping neat. French Oak staves are added to the casks to bring a new dimension to this fabulous whiskey.
