Video Description

Visit https://helixsleep.com/anderserickson to take advantage of their Sleep Awareness Month Flash Sale and get 20% off sitewide. Thanks to Helix Sleep for sponsoring! Today we’re making the Clara Bow, a modern classic bourbon cocktail created by Lynnette Marrero and Jim Kearns in 2009 at Rye House in New York City. It drinks like something much older, but the addition of St-Germain, an elderflower liqueur that didn’t hit the market until 2007, sets it apart from classic recipes. Fresh mint with lemon and grenadine place this drink somewhere between a whiskey sour, a daisy, and a smash. Remember a good grenadine makes all the difference. Cheers!
