A few years ago, my husband re-discovered his love of whiskey and cocktails, and we haven’t looked back since. Trips to different distilleries have been the highlight of our time together since we are both learning the intricacies of tasting notes and pairings in our tours and travels. So when I saw this recipe in the book, I felt that it was not only appropriate for our Valentine’s Day cocktail, but also because it feels personal to our story.
