Looking for the official recipe for The Belmont Jewel? You found it! This refreshing bourbon cocktail is the perfect summer sip and it’s so easy to make. It’s only three ingredients!
It’s a rare day when I post a recipe that isn’t original but when I saw the recipe posted on the Belmont Stakes Instagram, I knew I had to share it with all of you.
This refreshing drink is considerably lighter than a mint julep. If you’re looking for an equestrian themed drink recipe that’s not quite as strong, this is perfect!
