Wash and dry your lemons and mint leaves.

Halve the lemons and cook on the grill cut side down, for 5 minutes (tart juice) to 8 minutes (sweeter juice). Let cool and then juice. Reserve.

In a cocktail shaker, add the simple syrup and mint leaves. Muddle for 30 seconds.

Next, add the grilled lemon juice, whiskey, and a generous handful of ice to the shaker. Close and vigorously shake for 1 minute, until blended & chilled.

Take two of your favorite cocktail glasses and fill with ice.

Using a small strainer, strain your cocktail directly into the cocktail glass.

Garnish and enjoy!
