Black Cherry Smash with Budweiser Black Cherry Hard Seltzer
This Black Cherry Smash cocktail makes the case that
bourbon and black cherry have a
taste affinity that’s meant to be.
What started with
everyone drinking posh sparkling
waters has manifested into “hard seltzer” or soda
water mixed with neutral-flavored
alcohol, plus flavoring. Hard seltzer is sparkling
water, aka club soda, instilled
with attitude; generally between
4.5% and 7% ABV. Citrus, berry flavored,
and tropical fruit seltzers
are just the right vehicles
for creating summer
cocktails with fresh
fruit garnishes, like this Black Cherry Smash.

Be mindful: While these
cocktails are mixed with what
seems like flavored club soda
— given their “attitude,” one cocktail is
more like having a beer
and a shot.
Instructions
Muddle ⅓ cup blackberries,
¼ cup blueberries, and mint leaves
in bottom of a pitcher.
Stir in bourbon, seltzer, and simple
syrup; serve over ice. Garnish
cocktails with mint sprigs and
fresh berries
