  • 1 ounce fresh lemon juice
  • 1 ounce simple syrup

  • plash red wine prefer malbec or Shiraz

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine the whiskey, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg whites. Pour them into a cocktail shaker (without ice) and do a "dry shake" for a creamy consistency.
  2. Add ice to your shaker and shake again (called a "wet shake") to cool down your cocktail.
  3. Strain your cocktail into a glass. Carefully pour the red wine over the back of a spoon held just above your drink’s surface so it "floats" on top, adding a beautiful layer of color to your Sour.
