Strawberry-Rhubarb Smash
makes 1 cocktail
2 lemon wedges
4 mint leaves
2 strawberries, rinsed and hulled
1 ounce rhubarb simple syrup (plain simple syrup would do for a strawberry smash)
1½ ounces bourbon
sprig of mint for garnish
1. In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle together the lemon wedges, mint leaves, strawberries, and rhubarb simple syrup.
2. Add ice and the bourbon; cover and shake. Strain into a rocks glass (short tumbler) filled with ice (or one ginormous ice cube, in my case). Garnish with a sprig of mint.
