- No Bourbon? Use Jack Daniels (Tennessee whiskey is made much like bourbon)
- No Lemon Juice? Use Lemon (Squeeze fresh: 1 lemon gives about 30 ml)
- No Lemon Juice? Use Lime Juice (Sharper, different aroma)
- No Honey Syrup? Use Honey (Mix with the same amount of warm water first)
- No Honey Syrup? Use Agave Syrup (Cleaner and less floral)
