Chucktown Sunrise Cocktail

June 8, 2015 by Leave a Comment


The Chucktown Sunrise Cocktail was certainly a surprise to me based on the ingredients and the potency of the bourbon used.  I had heard that cask strength whiskey was the preferred whiskey to use in cocktails so I decided to crack open my Cask Strength Maker’s Mark bourbon and give it a go.  The cask strength bourbon provided the bite for the cocktail and you will be able to taste the whiskey with every sip of the cocktail.   And since I was all out of fresh lime juice, I decided to use Rose’s Sweetened Lime Juice instead.

The extra bite in the whiskey made up for the sweetened lime juice in the cocktail.  The Chucktown Sunrise Cocktail will be a go-to cocktail whenever you are having thoughts about visiting Chucktown AKA Charleston, South Carolina.
