Whiskey Sour

Tips & tricks:

  • Simple Syrup: To make your own simple syrup add equal parts water and sugar to a saucepan. Heat on low, stirring until the sugar has fully dissolved. Remove from the heat and wait until fully cooled before adding to the drink.
  • Lime Juice: When getting fresh lime juice roll the lime between you hand and the countertop before cutting the lime in half and squeezing. This will help ensure more juices are released.
  • Whiskey: Irish Whiskey is great in a whiskey sour but other whiskeys will work fine as a replacement.
  • Food Colouring: Add a single drop of green food colouring to get the same green as the photos. For a more vibrant green try adding 3 drops.
  • Pitcher: You can make a whole pitcher of whiskey sours and store it in the fridge overnight until you are ready to use it.
