So I got some cheap and nasty whiskey, bourbon to be exact, and my question is, if I mix it with some sort of fruit juice in the bottle, how long would it last? Basically making a whiskey punch. It's undrinkable as it is so I would probably just send it down the drain if it won't keep in the bottle.

What sort of bourbon is it? I love my bourbon and suspect you might just be being soft :lol:
I use the cheap and chatty stuff to make an infusion with sugar syrup and cinnamon. I've also added Apple to it and left it until the apple was a vile looking mess and the bottom. Filter it through a coffee filter and bottle. Tastes like Apple pie.!

It's called John Lee, bloody awful stuff, I'm a single malt snob to be fair.
So if I was to add some flavouring like cinnamon, and some sort of juice like apple juice to it, how long would it last? Will it go bad or not?

just make a Manhattan cocktail with it:
2-4 parts bourbon
1 part red vermouth
dash of bitters
(optional dash of syrup from the cherrys if you like a bit of sweetness)
shaken with some ice
maraschino cherry on stick
2 or 3 of them and it will taste great.

Ditch the 2 parts water and replace with a single ice cube , that sounds good, even this early in the morning

If you go to a distillery (in Scotland at least), they give you a pipette with your whisky - even a couple of drops completely changes the smell and taste of the whisky.

Much of the whisky I buy is over 50% alcohol. If you don't put a drop of water in it, it's just a burning sensation in the mouth. Which is a bit of a waste at �ã50 a bottle.
This one, I highly recommend.

I would want one this size for ã50.

I think she'd cost a bit more than that!
Not round here she wouldn't :lol:
Each to their own. Enjoy your Whisky (or due to your user name, you might prefer a fine Whiskey) in good health, whichever way :thumb:
