Because I got dozens of lemons in my CSA basket this week.
Because it was my birthday and I worked all weekend.
Because when life gives you lemons, you should make Whiskey Sours!
One Whiskey Sour – Not for the faint of heart
- 2 lemons, flesh segmented (as pictured above)
- 2 oz whiskey
- 1 tbsp of honey or agave syrup (skip the refined sugar, it’s just not that good for you)
- 4-6 ice cubes
Combine all ingredients in a blender and blitz until slushy and frothy. Serve in an old-fashioned glass.
Feel free to replace the Whiskey with rum, vodka, bourbon, amaretto. It’s a classic fresh flavour that works well with many liquors. Plus think of all the vitamins you are getting from the fresh lemons
I just made myself a glass of lemonade, should have added whiskey!
Everything tastes better with whiskey… almost!
