When you marry a Kentucky boy you’ve got to learn to do 2 things: Pronounce Louisville correctly and know how to choose a good whiskey. We’re a Maker’s Mark family here so I wanted to make a special treat for the hubs while using up some of our fresh picked berries. This Blueberry Bourbon Saucy Compote can be paired with your favorite dessert or to dress up chicken, fish or steak. Make it as boozy as you want or tame it for the kiddos.
