How Do You Sweeten Bourbon?
Bourbon is typically already sweet due to the natural sugars present in the corn used to make it. However, some people like to sweeten their bourbon by adding a small amount of simple syrup, honey, or maple syrup to it. It’s important to note that adding too much sweetener can mask the flavors and complexity of the bourbon, so it’s best to add just a small amount to enhance the sweetness without overpowering the drink.
