Whisky (or Whiskey) Sours
Tweet Follow @MyAchingHeadAs with most any drink or food recipe, it’s easy to jump on the net and lookup the recipe for pretty much any drink on the net, usually Wikipedia has a pretty good answer (as it does with most things.) But what happens to me, is I do that, lookup the recipe and then when I go to put the concoction together I’ve forgotten what was in it so I make something with the general gist of it. This recipe for the age old Whisky sours is exactly one of these. Now before I go on, I’m calling it a Whisky sours because I prefer Canadian and Scotch rather than American or Irish (with an e.)
Anyway, here’s the recipe:
- Muddle a heap of lemon and lime (3/4 of a lemon and half a lime, the more lemon is important)
- Add a splash of sugar syrup
- Add 60 ml of your favourite whisky (I prefer Canadian Club, but Johnnie Black goes a treat)
- Shake over ice
- Strain into a fresh short glass full of ice
- Top up with a little bit of soda water
- Garnish with a cherry and possibly a wedge of lime
