I made this drink specifically for Teresa who loves bourbon and tends not to like sours or drinks with amari. My inspiration for this drink is the Revolver, a drink that is essentially bourbon sweetened with coffee liqueur. Here, I sweeten the drink with demerara syrup which adds a little molasses flavor and then add the flavor with the Woodford Reserve Sassafras and Sorghum Bitters. The added benefit of these bitters is that Teresa really likes rootbeer so the sassafras works really well.
