Bourbon Meyer (Drink) - Posted Wed, 05/21/2008 - 9:56pm

I have heard different versions, but our Bourbon Meyer is 3 parts Sweet Tea and 1 Part Jim Beam. It tastes great too. If you dont have homemade sweet tea at your tailgate, you can buy it at Publix or bring Nestea. It's not as good as homemade though!

The other I have heard are Meyer's Rum, Jim Beam, and something else, but I dont remember what the other mixers were...

I start off with 3 parts Tea and 1 part Jim Beam, but then quickly switch to Half and Half, then after the game I go to 1 part Tea, with 3 parts Jim Beam, for a little pick me up!

Beam at a tailgate is a must. I will add it to the top ten list of things to bring to a tailgate in the tailgating forum.

These guys in this pic are the original originators of the Bourbon Meyer. We met these guys in Jax at the Cocktail party in 2005 and they had just came up with it. This pic is from when we ran into them at the SEC Championship game in 2006 though.

no doubt a great drink for a hot summer day....but watch out. Those Bourbon Meyers will slip up on ya if you get to drinking 'em too fast in that heat!  Not that I would no from experience or anything...
