Inspired by a moment of creative inspiration while listening to Chris Stapleton’s rendition of “Tennessee Whiskey,” Mark Cohn created a new cocktail. Drawing upon his knowledge of mixology, he developed a drink that perfectly complements the song’s mood. While acknowledging that the cocktail may not appeal to everyone, he and his spouse find it to be the ideal accompaniment to Stapleton’s music, suggesting that the two be enjoyed together for an optimal experience.
