Peanut Butter Jelly Whisky Old Fashioned

If you’re a big fan of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, you’ll love this twist on a whisky old fashioned.

There’s a bit of prep to make the peanut butter washed whisky, which basically is a way of infusing whisky with peanut butter. We’ve used the enfleurage method, which is a popular method of extracting oils and perfumes of plants. For this particular one, the idea is that by spreading the peanut butter out in the base of a container, the oils at the top will infuse the whisky that it comes into contact with.

It’s pretty easy to make and you get a really fragrant liquid that tastes like peanut butter - add the raspberry liqueur, and it’s a great combination that evokes the classic pairing.
