New York Sour
Servings 1 drink
This New York Sour recipe is perfect for fans of sour cocktails! It’s made with Sour Mix, whiskey, a twist of orange, and a layer of red wine that floats on top!
Ingredients
- ice
- 2 ounces bourbon whiskey
- 1½ ounces sour mix
- 1 ounce red wine
- 1 orange peel about 1 inch wide and 2 inches long
- 1 maraschino cherry
Instructions
- In a cocktail shaker filled halfway with ice, add the bourbon and sour mix. Cover and shake vigourously for 10 seconds.
- Strain into an old fashioned glass filled 1/2 way with ice.
- Pour red wine over the back of a spoon to create a layer on the top of the drink.
- Take the orange peel and twist it over the top of the drink so that the mist from the peel goes over the drink.
- Garnish with the orange peel and cherry.
Notes
- If you don't have sour mix on hand for this recipe you can use 1 ounce of simple syrup and a tablespoon of each fresh lime juice and fresh lemon juice. The sugar cannot be omitted since it has a higher density and it's what helps support the red wine floater. I highly recommend making my homemade sour mix.
- Rye whiskey may also be used for this recipe, but not Irish whiskey.
- Eggwhite Addition: Add all the ingredients, including the egg white, into a shaker WITHOUT ice (known as a “dry shake.”) Shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Then, fill halfway with ice and shake until chilled.
