Super Bowl Smash

After watching the Super Bowl in Colombia for the last few years, 
{no commercials or half time show. instead analyze the game in Spanish}
we thought a small gathering to celebrate football americana was important.

So we called some friends, made some appetizers. prepared cocktails, and Super Bowl partied. 

The crowd favorite:
a bourbon cocktail called a smash.

When we were in Tennessee my mother served us a smash. 
Both Matt and I loved and have been making ever since.
Correction.
Matt's been making, I've been enjoying. 

It was such a hit amongst our friends, I thought you might be interested too.
