Funny Valentine:
Avoid a February 15th hangover with new hangover prevention drink, Mercy.
1 1/2 oz Bourbon
2 oz of sweetened chamomile tea
4 fresh raspberries
1/4 oz fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 oz Mercy
Combine all ingredients, except Mercy, in a shaker with ice, shake, strain into a cognac snifter or lowball glass, float with Mercy and garnish with a rose petal.
(If you're celebrating anti-Valentine's Day, double the bourbon and substitute the raspberries for blueberries.)
