DJ Drinks: Recipe for “Lost Thyme” Bourbon Cocktail

What better way celebrate to September as National Bourbon Heritage Month than with a cocktail? (Really, it’s the only way.) The folks at Down One, a bourbon-focused bar and restaurant serving over 170 bourbon selections in the heart of Louisville’s Urban Bourbon Trail, shared this signature recipe with us.

Created for the restaurant by award-winning mixologist Beth Burrows, the Lost Thyme is the perfect drink for a crisp fall day. It will appeal to bourbon connoisseurs and newbies alike, and goes beautifully with baked fish, shrimp, or a pesto chicken.
