Best way to drink best whisky during the hot summer?

As long as you’re not in Scotland or Ireland, it’s perfectly acceptable to drink some of the more popular (and affordable) whiskies available on the market today – think Jim Beam, Grant’s or Evan Williams – and add a few ice cubes to keep the liquid chilled. In Kentucky, for example, you’ll often find people drinking bourbon in Dixie cups filled with crushed ice. And in hot European climates in Portugal and Spain, it’s common to see people sitting around the table with a bucket of ice while sipping their whiskey.
