Whisky Sour (or a Whiskey Sour, for my US & Irish readers) is probably my favourite “fancy” whisky cocktail. Whisky & Ginger, Whisky & Coke, and Lynchburg Lemonade aren’t really as fancy. So simple to make, yet so full of flavour. Pairs perfectly with BBQ too… doesn’t everything?! To add a bit more “BBQ” to this recipe, try smoking the Whisky.
