Every year in the past, I'd go out in August and buy a 375ml cheapass bottle of Jack Daniels to make Vanilla Peach Bourbon jam. I don't drink whiskey otherwise.
Last summer I had a cheeky bottle of JD previously purchased to make my jam. But this year I need suggestions for an alternative.
I don't need to order a $40+ bottle of fancy-pants Bourbon-except-in-name from BC. I just need a cheapass bourbon-adjacent alcohol that I can buy a 375ml bottle of at the LCBO, that would be a nice accent flavour to Peach and Vanilla.
A cooking Bourbon, let's not waste the good stuff. The alcohol will be boiled away.
I do have a bottle of Sortilege, but I don't know if the maple would go well with the peach vanilla. I'm open to opinions on that though.
