Tips
- Some people may not like the taste of Southern Comfort, so bourbon whiskey may be a preferable ingredient.
- This drink can also be made with 1/2 oz Vodka instead of the peach schnapps.
- Southern Comfort tastes very different than bourbon whiskey, so the whiskey is an alternative but not a substitute for Southern Comfort.
Warnings
- Always drink alcoholic beverages responsibly.
