A smooth, bright whisky classic with lemon, sugar, bitters and a soft foamy top.


A well-made Whisky Sour is one of the best ways to bring balance and life to almost any bottle of whisky. The basic sour formula is also easy to customise, making it a great recipe for trying different syrups, bitters and spirits.

Whisky, lemon and foam.


Glassware

Rocks glass.


Garnish

Skewered lemon and cherry.


Ingredients

60ml Whisky

15ml cocktail foamer, such as egg whites
