This is a whiskey sour recipe for the true connoisseur. 🍋🥃

I would say. I drank a bazillion of these and I never knew it had egg whites in it? Who knew well? I guess preppy kitchen!

My Dad made would make my mom a whiskey sour during the Holiday Season. They looked so fancy. He would make Shirley Temples for us kids. Love that memory of my dad. I would love to try this and make one for my mom. After Lent of course.

Did you ever end up making it? :)

[@tanksalot8029]

After lent 😂😂😂 sooo relatable

I've been cooking, baking and drink blending for nearly 4 decades, and I always learn something new from you. One of the things I love most is that you don't edit out the mistakes and goofs! Thanks so much!

Another variation is to add a tablespoon of orange marmalade instead of the simple syrup and strain it after. I copied that style from a local English bar here in Boston.

[@gracecampbell3151]

François Jacques ohhhhh snap. I’m in the UK and thinking am I really going to search tor sugar syrup. Hell naw.

Simple syrup is equal parts water and sugar. Heat till sugar is dissolved then cool.

Love the drink recipes, just attended bartending classes, would love to see more drink recipes

I just made my very first whisky sour and WOW!! Thank you! Very easy to follow along and understand. Very delicious!

[@user-tu2xf4uf3n]

Why dont we get drunk and screw ????

[@Jasminebed2]

First cocktail I ever had in a fancy bar, more than 40 years ago. Nice to see these classics making a comeback. I like Amaretto sours too, just skip the simple syrup.

[@mariaytuarte7237]

John you're one of a kind, I love your recipes they're so delicious 😋

Thank you I never knew that about pasteurizing eggs. Nice change from the cakes and icings. YUM

[@LS406]

This drink is awesome with honey syrup instead of simple syrup! It’s one of my favorites!😊🥂

[@drax14QC]

Absolutely! It makes a Gold Rush in this case if you don't add the egg white :P

[@msshengyt]

Oooooooh! I did not think you have cocktail recipes. Wow! Thanks for all these freshly made cocktails! 😋😋😋

[@cloisterene]

Thank you, I've always wanted to try it! (I've never had a martini, either, lol). I'll make mine with bourbon.

[@aaronphillips402]

2023 update. We can’t afford to drink 1/2 an egg white in a cocktail.

Any chance you could make a mulled wine or home made apple cider video? I’ve never done it but I love the idea so much!

[@iainrobb2076]

I've tried my first one of these tonight. Lovely. Far superior, IMO, to the gin gimlet, which I think is a fairly unbalanced drink, with the tartness of home made lime cordial more or less overwhelming the gin.

[@erzzee348]

just made it and am currently enjoying it. Cheers!

Why pasteurize the egg white, isn't the alcohol in the bourbon enough to kill any Salmonella? Anyhow, been doing this drink (pretty much the same way) and absolutely love it.Thanks for sharing your way of doing it.

Should I still dry shake if we do it the vegan way, without the egg but with aqua faba at the bar I work at?

[@kennycelt]

If I was to make two whiskey sours for me and a friend could i simply double the ingredients and pour into two glasses???? Sláinte 🇮🇪

[@rhinomite5203]

I thought the ‘dry shake’ emulsified the egg. But once you explained pasteurized it makes more sense to use a darn egg white 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@ELENA-bz1rs]

you should make a video on how to pasteurize your eggs...and i like madori sour

That's one badass icecube right there !!!

[@funkyjeff77]

Hi ! First of all, thank you for your great channel, you are great! I made this mix greatly inspired by your video, however, the foam was barely any foam...Is it because I Took the eggs from the fridge just before shaking it with other ingredients or because I didn't shake enough or long enough? Many thanks for your channel John! Cheers from Québec city Canada minus 23 today! Jeff

Is it okay if I replace bourbon whiskey with scotch whiskey?

[@cleanerben9636]

I just whack the full egg white in because I'm lazy and don't do half measures lol. Eggs here in the UK tend to be pretty clean even the fresher free-range or local farm ones.

[@R005t3r]

I suggest you try it with Canadian whiskey, and maple syrup; for a Bitter Canadian

[@killercuda]

Where did you get that glass? Great videos

[@sweetsavings7327]

Not going to lie I love the ones you get at the bar that have that cheap sweet and sour mix 😌

[@banangela]

You can also use aquafaba! Great taste, way better shelf life, easier to transport, vegan-friendly, etc. It's a great alternative to egg white 😄

[@arzhvr9259]

Tastes disgusting

anyone know why adding ice in the second shake is important? just wondering since the drink gets strained anyways. thanks.

Try this Barefoot Contessa's Whiskey sour. 3/4 C Canadian Whiskey, 2/3 Simple syrup, 1/2 cup fresh lemon (about 3) 1/2 cup fresh limes (about 4 limes. Rinse and repeat. Wait...then chase your partner around the house.

Wasn't expecting that Contrapoints reference with The Mouth Feel.

[@fredflint3998]

Y’all would be amazed at how many actual bartenders cannot make this drink correctly. The egg white is essential for this drink to be made properly. I will only order one of these at a high end bar/restaurant, otherwise you’re taking your chances. When made right this drink is amazing.

[@lambbenally]

This. Is. My. Favorite. 😋

[@andien8760]

Give your egg white a good stir in the bowl and it should pour to measure a bit better.

[@voxer99]

IMHO, this is even better with Scotch.
