How To Make The Perfect New York Sour

[@TallSlowGuy]

Made my first one tonight…this bartending thing is harder than it looks! Your tip about holding the top tight when you shake it…that’s a spot on!😂

[@boozeontherocks]

I’m glad it helped. Keep practicing!

[@icemancantcook]

Also, you broke my brain by using the strainer for the egg... Amazing Tip! Although, I'm always using egg yolks or egg whites for something... When I have extra egg whites, I just put them into ice cube trays and then defrost them when I know I'm going to make a cocktail. Still has that great mouthfeel that we enjoy.

[@boozeontherocks]

Your welcome. It works really well.

[@jgutierrez8024]

Great tip Dave on the strainer. You can never go wrong with a properly prepared NY Sour. Salud/Cheers!!

[@boozeontherocks]

Your welcome, and I definitely agree with a proper NY Sour.

[@FlourEggsYeast]

I haven't had one of these in SO long Dave, but I'd definitely down this quick

[@boozeontherocks]

It does go down so well.

[@edwardguy6048]

I really appreciate the way you explain your cocktail history and preparation! As always the drink looks gorgeous!🫡

[@boozeontherocks]

Thank you very much Edward.

Slow semi rainy afternoon. A great time to get caught up on some of Dave's cocktails. Nice tip with the egg and strainer. Nice layering. Cheers!

[@boozeontherocks]

Thank you PJ, I'm glad you liked it.

[@ou812927]

The egg through the strainer is the greatest tip ever!!! And I will be making this drink tonight. Thank you!

[@boozeontherocks]

Your welcome, I hope you like it.

[@ou812927]

Hey I just made it exactly as you showed and this may be my new fav cocktail. I used Old Forester 1920 Prohibition style Bourbon. Drinking it as I type. I used a Pinot Noir and it all goes so good together. Thanks again, Cheers and Happy New Year!

[@boozeontherocks]

@@ou812927 Awesome, I'm glad it worked out for you.

[@AlexandraKormos]

[@boozeontherocks]

Thanks so much! 😊 I'm glad you like the cocktails and videos

[@Ulgarth]

Happy Friday! Have a great weekend. Oh a sour... oh well. 😁 I'll probably be on Saturday listening to the three of you.

[@boozeontherocks]

Happy Friday Ulgarth.

[@scottbaron121]

Beautifully made drink, brother!

[@boozeontherocks]

Not a wine person by any means but I have tried these on occasion and enjoyed them.

[@boozeontherocks]

I'm not a wine person either. but this work really well.

[@karent3394]

I love your videos and your explanations. So glad I am supporting your Patreon as you make creating cocktails, etc fun =, accessible, and explain the basics without overwhelming the home bartender!

[@boozeontherocks]

Thank you so much Karen.

[@icemancantcook]

Looks good and appreciate the history lesson. I like the wine tip for cooking too... If you wouldn't want to drink the wine on it's own, why would you want to flavor a meal with it? Always use ingredients you enjoy.

[@boozeontherocks]

Absolutely, You have to like it.

[@maharshicool79]

TGIF Cocktail!! It's been long since i had a sour. I have the perfect ingredient for this - Substitute Bourbon for Alberta Premium ( Rye whiskey) & Noroi Foamer. Next one foamer & Jim Beam. Always wanted to try egg substitute. Happy Weekend & Cheers!!

[@boozeontherocks]

Awesome, let me know how it turns out for you and have a great weekend.

[@Xuuch]

A nice New York Sour is always welcome

[@boozeontherocks]

That it is :)

[@nicktheflybradley]

Hi David, just watched this after successful final fishing trip this season. Currently enjoying a double dosed Last of the Oaxacans. Excellent tip on the egg separation. After a pizza meal with red wine I might make this for later. Separate point, London Borough of Greenwich ignores the double “e” and the “w” is silent - Grenich is the pronounciation. I do not know however how New Yorkers pronounce Greenwich Village. Nick from York

[@boozeontherocks]

Hi Nick, I normally say it the way its pronounced by you. I was just over emphasizing it I guess :)

[@OldFashionedWays]

Oh don’t remember if I have ever had a sour 😅. Which do you prefer a bourbon or a rye? I might have to try one of each. Interesting has al the ingredients of an old fashioned. Plus I have never made a cocktail with egg white. May have to consider making. Thanks so much for sharing. Cheers 🥃

[@boozeontherocks]

Your welcome. I have only ever had this with Bourbon, but a rye version would be worth trying.

[@christinecamley]

Terrific cocktail-)

[@boozeontherocks]

Thank you Christine :)

[@orazioraffermati5303]

Hi Dave , very nice

[@boozeontherocks]

Thank you.

[@ericsloop6063]

WOW!!! I DIDN'T know you can use the Hawthorne strainer for egg whites! Thinking of this trick, could one use it for other cocktails that call for eggwhites?

[@boozeontherocks]

Sure you ca. As long as you hawthorne strainer has holes.

[@phillipstradlin9031]

Mr. David, I have been making your recipe for quite some time now. Love it! But could I use a sweet wine and if so, what would you recommend?

[@boozeontherocks]

That is a good question. Possibly a Late-Harvest Riesling or a Madeira

[@minnyein9883]

I found it I'm prefer the way your recipe and technic

[@boozeontherocks]

Thank you so much 😊

[@mccrush1104]

What flavour of angostura did you use

[@boozeontherocks]

I used the standard Angostura Bitters.

[@bobblowhard8823]

I give the egg yolk to my dog.

[@boozeontherocks]

Dogs love eggs :)

[@nkosijayceon2355]

On your next video can you please pair wines 🍷with food 🙏🏿thanks

[@boozeontherocks]

It may take a couple of episodes

[@gnomestavern8285]

surprising do think I have had a New York sour

[@boozeontherocks]

They are very good.

[@exohumer3486]

My wine gone straight to the bottom. maybe I shouldn't have used up the old Port :)

[@boozeontherocks]

The port does sound great but it is very dense compared to the Claret or a dry red wine. That's why it sunk, but its a combination I would definitely try. :)

[@Cocktailnyymi]

Nice nice!!! I am still team #noegg here :D

[@boozeontherocks]

Okay, we will sub it for you :)

[@TheSpiritoftheCocktail]

HAHAHA!!! CLASSIC!!!
