🍒 Sip of the Season: The Belle Meade Boulevardier 🥃
Have you checked out the November issue of Stroll Belle Meade yet? This month’s “Sip of the Season” is a must-try — a rich, elegant twist on the classic Boulevardier created by Belle Meade’s own James Hensley of the newly relaunched Belle Meade Bourbon.
By leaning a little heavier on the bourbon, softening Campari’s bite, and adding a splash of Cherry Heering, this cocktail brings warm dark-fruit notes and just the right amount of fall sweetness. It’s the perfect companion for a post-Boulevard Bolt brunch, a cozy fall night in, or a festive Thanksgiving gathering.
Even better — the Belle Meade Boulevardier pays tribute to Nashville’s iconic cherry trees along Second Avenue, blending local history right into the glass. 🌸
You can try it this season at Bonnie’s Bourbon & Wine Bar, or shake (well… stir!) one up at home:
➡️ Belle Meade Bourbon
➡️ Carpano Antica Vermouth
➡️ Campari
➡️ Cherry Heering
Top with a Luxardo cherry and a flamed orange twist, and you’ve got yourself a sip of Nashville’s story.
✨ Belle Meade residents — don’t miss this recipe in the November issue! Give it a try and let us know what you think. Cheers to fall! 🥂
