Sweet elixer of bacon....

[whisper]

FOR THE BOURBON- BACON INFUSION:

3 or 4 slices bacon, or enough to render 1 ounce of fat (PDT uses Benton’s, but any extra-smoky variety will do)

1 750-ml. bottle of bourbon such as Four Roses Yellow Label
FOR THE OLD FASHIONED:

2 ounces bacon-infused bourbon 

1/4 ounce Grade B maple syrup

2 dashes Angostura bitters

Twist of orange

FOR THE BACON-INFUSED BOURBON: Cook bacon in pan and reserve rendered fat. (1) When bacon fat has cooled a bit, pour off one ounce from pan. (2) Pour bourbon into a non-porous container. (3) Strain the bacon fat into the container and infuse for 4 to 6 hours at room temperature. Place mixture in freezer until all the fat is solidified. With a slotted spoon, remove fat and strain mixture back into bottle. 




FOR THE COCKTAIL: In mixing glass, stir 2 ounces bacon-infused bourbon, maple syrup, and bitters with ice. Strain into chilled rocks glass filled with ice. Garnish with orange twist.

Not quite sure if this would be good or a train wreck...

Although, you could modify this (use vodka or higher proof flavorless alcohol) a bit and make bacon extract.

Nothing like bacon sugar cookies....

A train Wreck is coffee brandy + jack daniels + milk. (Take out the milk and it's called a catastrophe.)
