Backwoods Bar  Camping and cocktails are a summertime match made in heaven. Yes, you can pop the top of a can of beer, but it's also easy to turn your campsite into a craft cocktail lounge. Here are some tips to bring a touch of civilization to the great outdoors.    Create Our Own Campsite Cocktail Lounge Focus on Your Favorite - Rather than bringing something for everyone, singling out your personal favorite means the right drink is always at the ready. For me, that drink is an Old Fashioned. Mix it at Home - Taking your cocktail on the road – already mixed and ready to pour – adds leisure to your life. I use a slick 500 ml travel decanter from Aged & Ore that nests into a protective stainless-steel case. While more utilitarian, a clean Nalgene bottle works great, too. Crush the Cold - Bring a supply of ice just for drinks. If I have the room, I’ll put cocktail ice in its own cooler. Once in camp, a YETI Rambler bucket keeps the ice cold a good long time. It also doubles as a place to keep canned bevvies cold during those side trips from camp. Don't Forget to Finish - Bring the right garnishes to properly finish your cocktail. Martinis need olives, gin and tonics demand lime wedges, and our Old Fashioneds must have an orange twist and Amarena Fabbri Italian cherries.

"One of the high points in my life was when local cocktail master Michael Bowers, formerly of The Modern Hotel, in Boise, Idaho, bestowed me with a cocktail bearing my name. I’d challenged Michael to create an Old Fashioned with the 'right' amount of sweetness. After a few trips to The Modern, he presented me with a drink that pleased and amazed. Here’s my take on the original recipe. See if you can spot the secret ingredient."   Yasuda Old Fashioned Ingredients ½ teaspoon demerara sugar 4 dashes Regan's Orange Bitters No. 6 1 ½ oz. bourbon* ½ oz. El Dorado 15 Year Aged Rum Orange twist Optional: Amarena Fabbri cherry Directions Add the sugar and bitters into a mixing glass and mix with a muddler or spoon until combined. Pour in the bourbon and rum. Allow to rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir, then strain into an Old Fashioned glass. Garnish with orange twist. Michael didn’t believe in the cherry, but I like one in my cocktail. *The original cocktail used Elijah Craig 12 Year Single Barrel Bourbon. One variation that briefly appeared on the menu was made with Weller Antique 107, and it became my personal favorite. The sweetness of the wheated bourbon combined with the aged rum was amazing.   Backwood Whiskey Tasting Many campfires have been graced with a bottle of whiskey, a special addition that is ideal for cool evenings. I enjoy sampling a variety of bourbons in camp, but schlepping four glass bottles can be a bit much, even for the most zealous connoisseur. Many campfires have been graced with a bottle of whiskey, a special addition that is ideal for cool evenings. I enjoy sampling a variety of bourbons in camp, but schlepping four glass bottles can be a bit much, even for the most zealous connoisseur. For short trips, I use this compact Bottle Flight from Aged & Ore that holds four 3-ounce pours. I tend to go with four outstanding whiskeys, but also like to keep them in the same family — for example, four different rye whiskeys. I recently packed Sazerac, High West Double Rye, Whistlepig 12 and Thomas Handy. Or you can try a flight of wheated bourbons, like Weller 12, Weller Full Proof, Old Rip Van Winkle 10 and Van Winkle Special Reserve Lot B 12.  I also like to get further out into the wilds of Idaho, which requires more attention to weight. For a backpacking backwoods bar, I pack a super light titanium flask from Snow Peak filled with something on the high proof side. Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is always a treat. I know many folks like to drink right from the flask, but I pack a couple titanium shot glasses made by TOAKS that weigh next to nothing.
