Cherry Sour Squared
So glad to have had Melissa’s help in thinking up this take on a whisky sour, which is my favourite way to enjoy whiskey. I used ingredients that were available to me and accessible to most, creating a drink that chills your fingers but warms you inside. Wonderful for the holiday season!
2 oz Knob Creek
3/4 oz lemon juice
3/4 oz simple syrup
3/4 oz egg white
5 ml sour cherry bitters
Sour Cherry bitters
10 strong shakes Angostura bitters
1/4 oz sour cherry juice
1/4 oz simple syrup
Method:
Dry shake all ingredients well. Add ice and shake again, until a good foam is created.
Double strain into glass, garnish with drops of sour cherry bitters and 3 sour cherries skewered.
For a vegan version you could use 1/2 dropper of Miraculous Foamer in lieu of egg white.
Garnish: 3 sour cherries, 5 drops of sour cherry bitters.
Glassware: Rocks glass
