Watch how to make this easy, three-ingredient cocktail for World Whiskey Day

You only need three ingredients to make a Monte Carlo. People first started drinking this cocktail in the early 1800′s. Lightnin’s Good Time bartender Richard Garcia says it was likely drunk during Prohibition when cocktails got really popular because the quality of bootlegged spirits was not so good and mixers were needed to make alcohol more palatable. Watch the video above and learn how to make this legendary cocktail for yourself. Be sure to mix one up for World Whiskey Day on May 18. Drink responsibly!
