Rye Malt Whisky Sour
It’s arguably the greatest cocktail of all time, but then ALL cocktails are arguably the greatest cocktail of all time. And that is always a fun argument to have. Whisky, sugar, lemon and if you like froth; egg white. You can make this at home - it’s not hard, give it a go.
Ingredients:
- 60ml Rye Malt Whisky
- 30ml lemon juice
- 15ml sugar syrup (1:1 ratio of sugar dissolved in water)
- 15ml egg white (optional)
Method:
Shake all ingredients very hard in a shaker without ice to emulsify the egg white, then add ice and shake again, as hard as you can manage until your fingers feel icy.
Strain over ice, garnish as you fancy, maybe a cherry, maybe a lemon wedge, an orange twist is fun.
