This cocktail is not only refreshing but is also really simple to make. I came home from work wanting a really good cocktail and quickly realized I did not have the energy to put forth a lot of effort. I had some oranges so I grabbed a bottle of bourbon and started mixing. I usually like bourbon neat but the orange juice really made this cocktail taste fresh. Plus it’s only two ingredients and for very little effort you feel like you are drinking a beautiful cocktail at a restaurant.
