Whiskey Sour Recipe (with Video)

Ever since discovering whiskey last summer, I’ve been having a lot of fun experimenting with classic whiskey cocktails, like this Classic Whiskey Sour recipe.

Whiskey Sour Recipe 

The Whiskey Sour was invented in 1872 and has been a favorite classic cocktail ever since.

Using just 5-ingredients (including the garnish), this classic tastes like a brisk lemonade and is a fun option for summer get-togethers.

Today, I’m sharing all of the details for how to make a classic Whiskey Sour over on SoFab Food – but if you try it, don’t forget to come back and tell me (or tag me on social media).

You Will Need:
