DawgCast Cocktail - Our Thyme!

It's Our Thyme! Time is the constant, undeniable, unstoppable. We all have our time. What matters, is what we make of it. Coach Dooley and Mrs. Barbara have made the most of their time. Herschel owned his. Like so many Dawgs before, this 2019 pack has a short time to make this their own, and make it last... In the 1830's, founder Augustus Bulleit nearly lost his now famous recipe, and did lose his life in route to New Orleans to deliver his prize bourbon. Thankfully his family took up the torch and we still enjoy it today.  In honor of the tradition of the South and of UGA, we present Our Thyme. A Bulleit Thyme cocktail that marries the beloved bourbon whiskey of so many Saturdays before us. Lemon, bright like mid-morning tailgate sunshine, sweet agave like the dreams of young and new Dawgs, and a little bit of Thyme, because that's all we're guaranteed in life. Dawg nation of 2019, this is our time and it too will pass. Augustus Bulleit gave it all to take his prize to New Orleans but fate befell him. This year we finish the drill and finish the journey. Our Thyme is now and our time can culminate in New Orleans - if we make the most of it.  Our Thyme - A Dawg's Time 4 oz Bulleit Bourbon (don't be stingy) Honey Splash of lemon 2 Sprigs of Thyme Ice All-American Tip: Simmer 8 sprigs of fresh Thyme with 1/2 cup of agave in 2 cups of water to make a Honey-Thyme simple syrup.
