On February 3, Super Bowl LIII touches down in Atlanta’s new Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where Two Urban Licks serves a bourbon-powered Coca-Cola slushy. You can use any bourbon (Two prefers Four Roses), but in Atlanta, the Coke is nonnegotiable.

Ingredients

- 2 oz. bourbon
- ½ cup ice
- Coca-Cola

Preparation

Fill an ice tray with Coca-Cola (about a can and a half) and freeze. Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until they form a slush. Pour into a glass and, if you like, garnish with a cherry or a slice of lime.
