Cocktail Series feat. Let's Go: Gold Rush

Some cocktails just look like game day. The Gold Rush is one of them — gold and blue in a glass, and about as easy as a great cocktail gets. It's our WVU house pour and a tasting-room favorite all season long.

Made with Let's Go.™ Bourbon, fresh lemon, and honey syrup, the Gold Rush is a modern classic — think of it as a whiskey sour rounded out with the floral sweetness of honey. Three ingredients, no fuss, and it goes down remarkably smooth. Perfect for tailgating in Morgantown or watching from the couch.

Gold Rush Recipe:

• 1.5 oz Let's Go.™ Bourbon
• .75 oz Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
• .75 oz Honey Syrup

Add everything to a glass with ice, stir, and garnish with a lemon peel.

Honey Syrup: Combine equal parts honey and warm water, stir until fully dissolved, and let cool. Keeps in the fridge for up to a week — handy to have on hand all season.

Raise a glass to the Mountaineers. Happy sipping and Let's Go!
