Champagne and Bourbon Make For One Great Cocktail

With September just around the corner, we’re looking to properly toast the end of summer, and a round of these spirit-forward Seelbach cocktails from the 2016 JBFA-nominated Southerner's Cookbook should do. This glamorous drink hails from the Seelbach Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky, and combines bourbon, Cointreau, bitters, and Champagne into one bold tippler. Raise a glass to a season well spent with a round or two. Get the recipe.
