Well, you’re here now, and that is ALL that matters, Jennie! I whip this drink up all the time when I buy too many Meyers. But it works great with regular lemons, too!

Good “bartending” is all about working with what you’ve got, right Emily? I’m so glad you gave these a try!

Oh, you must make it! I’ve been using it in place of sugar cubes in regular Old Fashioneds, and it’s so good. I think bourbon already has a vanilla-ish quality to it, so this kind of enhances that.

Don’t you just love all of the creative cocktails bloggers come up with?

I bought the bitters (Angostura brand) at the grocery store – they are widely available. I’m sure you could make own. I would suggest just Googling “homemade orange bitters.”

Also, you an absolutely use vanilla bean paste! I use it all the time as a substitute for a vanilla bean. My jar of vanilla bean paste says that 1 Tablespoon paste = 1 vanilla bean, so just sub that in in this simple syrup.

Oh, that sounds like SO much fun! Why doesn’t one of us own a private jet? 🙁
