Whiskey Sour
Whiskey Sour
A whiskey sour is a short cocktail built on the classic balance of spirit, citrus, and sweetness, sharpened by fresh lemon juice and softened by sugar syrup. Egg white, shaken in two stages, gives the finished drink a silky body and a pale, foamy top. Two dashes of Angostura bitters finish it with a faint aromatic edge. Cooling, tart, and satisfying.
