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