The Mountain Man is an autumn cocktail that was created by Natasha David at Nitecap in New York City, New York. It's a variation of the classic Penicillin that calls for a similar template of whiskey, lemon, and ginger, but this version uses maple syrup in place of simple syrup and adds a bit of peach liqueur for an extra kick of flavor.
Add bourbon, lemon juice, peach liqueur, ginger syrup, and maple syrup to a shaker.
Fill shaker with cubed ice.
Shake for 10-20 seconds.
Fill a lowball glass with fresh cubed ice.
Using a Hawthorne strainer, strain into lowball glass.
Garnish with candied ginger.
