The Lynchburg lemonade is named after Lynchburg, Tennessee, hometown of the Jack Daniel's Distillery. It is one of the most popular mixed drinks and the Tennessee whiskey's signature cocktail. While the official recipe is a little more complicated than mixing whiskey and lemonade, it's still very easy and perfect for a lazy summer afternoon or a backyard barbecue.

Ingredients

1 1/2 ounces Jack Daniels

5 ounces fresh lemon juice

1 ounce simple syrup

Lemon slices, to garnish

1 cup sugar

1 cup water

Preparation

In medium saucepan combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Allow to cool. In cocktail glass filled with ice, stir Jack Daniels, lemon juice and 1 ounce syrup. Garnish with lemon slices. Serves 1.
