Eclipse Bourbon Float 

November 1, 2024

If you’re ready for a cozy fall treat with a boozy twist, this Eclipse Bourbon Float is exactly what you need! With bourbon, a splash of fresh citrus, and topped with a creamy scoop of ice cream, it’s the perfect way to bring a little sweetness and warmth to those crisp fall nights. Let’s make it!

What You’ll Need 

  • Ice 
  • 2 oz of your favorite bourbon 
  • 1/2 oz simple syrup 
  • 3-4 dashes of bitters 
  • A squeeze of fresh orange juice 
  • Bell’s Oberon Eclipse 
  • Vanilla ice cream (optional but worth it) 
  • Orange peel, to garnish 
  • A straw 

 

How to Make It 

  1. Fill your glass with ice. Start by getting that chill factor in place. 
  2. Pour in 2 oz of bourbon. Go with whatever you love—bourbon is the star here, so choose a favorite! 
  3. Add 1/2 oz of simple syrup for a touch of sweetness. 
  4. Dash in some bitters, about 3-4 dashes. They’ll give the drink a bit of depth that’s perfect for fall. 
  5. Squeeze in a bit of orange juice. Just a little fresh juice adds a nice citrusy zing. 
  6. Top it all off with Oberon Eclipse. Fill it almost to the rim—the Eclipse is smooth and brings a hint of malt and citrus. 
  7. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream (if you’re feeling fancy). It melts into the drink for a creamy, dessert-like finish. 
  8. Garnish with an orange peel for a pop of color and a hint of orange aroma. 
  9. Pop in a straw, and you’re good to go! 

Grab a cozy blanket, sit back, and enjoy this fall-inspired float. It’s bourbon, it’s creamy, and it’s the best of fall in a glass!
