    My Grandma makes this great drink called a bourbon slush, which is basically orange juice concentrate plus bourbon.

    The younger generations are gonna miss out on so much

      Oh man, I don’t think I’ve ran into anyone else that knew what bourbon slush is. I had a friend growing up and it was a staple of their big family gatherings. I actually had no idea how they made it until now, but I would always get a couple of tubs to take home with me. Highlight of the year during my college years.

        It’s also popular here in Wisconsin, but our version typically uses brandy. I made a bunch for my wedding. I hate to think that would be the last time!

              that’s like 12 ounces of bourbon…

              Also, you don’t really drink it… You definitely eat it with a spoon.

              Also also, I definitely don’t have a recipe for it… I literally just learned from the commenter above me that it was OJ concentrate and booze… lol
