We had maple syrup and substituted this for the simple syrup and it was incredible! The maple syrup and bourbon work so well together. Would highly recommend you do the same!
Think I'll give that a try after I buy some maple syrup ;)

I tried this and liked it but the next time I tweaked the recipe a bit used lime instead of lemon used Peychaud's bitters instead of Angostura and only dry shook it then poured over ice it made it more foamy and it tasted more luxurious imho
