Father’s Day Drink Recipes From Bulleit Bourbon and George Dickel

Bulliet Says Happy Fathers Day

Father’s Day comes but once a year, and it’s a great time to have a drink — responsibly, of course.

Here are some Father’s Day drink recipes provided by Bulleit Bourbon and George Dickel, which is a whisky. In the spirit of full disclosure, I have not tried these beverages but I would like to because they sound quite tasty. Also: these beverages contain alcohol. You should know that, but I feel the need to mention it.

These recipes were provided to us by the same folks who sent us on a couple of DaddyTips Road Trips. We like them.
