Cranberry Cinnamon Whiskey Sour
Report
The Cranberry Cinnamon Whiskey Sour is a cocktail blending bourbon, fresh lemon juice, and 100% cranberry juice with simple syrup, served over crushed ice with cinnamon sticks for aromatic warmth. It offers a tart, slightly sweet, and spiced flavor profile, making it a seasonal twist on the classic whiskey sour.
Description
This cocktail balances bourbon's warmth with the tartness of cranberries and lemon juice, sweetened by simple syrup to soften the edges. The drink is shaken vigorously with ice to chill and integrate the flavors before straining over crushed ice. Cinnamon sticks in the glass enhance the aroma and add subtle spice without overpowering the mix.
An optional garnish of sugared cranberries or an orange peel complements the cranberry notes and adds festive presentation. The drink is suited for gatherings or as a cozy seasonal beverage offering a mix of sweet, sour, and spiced elements centered around bourbon.
