How to make a Whisky Sour
- Add all ingredients, except the ice into the shaker and shake for about 10 seconds.
- Add in the cubed ice and shake it (like a polaroid picture) for another 10 seconds.
- Strain over fresh ice into a glass and pop a cherry on top, if you’re feeling fancy.
There you have it. Make them for your friends sometime – they taste amazing, plus they’ll be impressed that you’ve managed to do something with whisky beside adding coke to it.
