Bourbon Thyme Cocktail

There is a major Friyay celebration going on over here.  What an amazingly full week; it started out in Vegas, celebrating with old friends and new, attending The Las Vegas Market, returning home vibrating with inspiration to days full of client meetings and exciting prospective projects.  The perfect week really.  But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t ready to kick up my feet and relax tonight. Naturally I have the perfect cocktail in mind for said feet up relaxation: a Bourbon Thyme Cocktail, a thyme infused take on the classic old fashioned.  Herbaceous and sweetened with honey instead of refined sugar (something I’m working on limiting this year), it’s perfect for a winter evening cozied up at home.  Enjoy!

The process may seem involved, but it’s worth the work and the Simple Syrup and Brandied Cranberries will keep for weeks.
