Peach Whiskey Sour
A fruity and refreshing twist on the classic Whiskey Sour with sweet peach flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 oz (60ml) whiskey (bourbon or rye)
- 1 oz (30ml) fresh lemon juice
- 3/4 oz (22ml) peach syrup (or fresh peach purée)
- 1/2 oz (15ml) simple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 egg white (optional, for a frothy texture)
- Ice cubes
- Peach slices and a cherry (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the Cocktail:
- In a cocktail shaker, combine whiskey, lemon juice, peach syrup, simple syrup, and egg white (if using).
Dry Shake (if using egg white):
- Shake without ice for about 15 seconds to create a frothy texture.
Shake Again:
- Add ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for another 15 seconds to chill the drink.
Strain and Serve:
- Strain into a chilled rocks glass over ice or serve neat in a coupe glass.
Garnish:
- Add a peach slice and a cherry for the perfect finishing touch.
Notes
- For a stronger peach flavor, use fresh peach purée instead of peach syrup.
- If you don’t have simple syrup, dissolve 1 teaspoon of sugar in the lemon juice before mixing.
- Egg white is optional but adds a smooth, velvety texture.
