Bacon-infused Bushmills Irish whiskey – Cook 8 ounces of high-quality bacon until all the fat is rendered. Set the bacon aside for another use and pour the drippings into a glass jar with a lid. Add 6 ounces of Bushmills Irish whiskey, shake well and let stand in a cool, dark place for 48 hours to infuse. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes (the fat should solidify). Scoop the fat off the top and strain to remove any remaining fat particles.
