As you well know, the husband is fond of a good bourbon. And he’s quite talented at making specialty cocktails. So this year during football season, he made these delicious Bourbon Slushies! I’m not even really a bourbon fan, and y’all, these things were quite tasty. Check them out for a new twist for a drink for your next gathering!
