What is a Vanilla Whiskey Sour?

A vanilla whiskey sour is a variation of the traditional whiskey sour cocktail incorporating vanilla’s rich and aromatic flavor. It includes whiskey, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla syrup. The addition of vanilla adds a subtle sweetness and depth to the cocktail, complementing the whiskey and citrus elements for a delightful twist on the classic drink.

How to Make: 

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz. bourbon whiskey of choice
  • 3/4 oz. freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 3/4 oz. organic vanilla syrup
  • 1 egg white (optional)
  • 2-3 dashes of orange bitters
  • Garnish
    • 2-3 dashes of Angostura bitters
    • maraschino cherry

Directions: 

  1. Add all the ingredients to a cocktail shaker. Then, dry shake (without ice) vigorously for around 30 seconds
    • Skip this step if you’re not using egg white.
  2. Add ice to the shaker, and shake again until frost forms outside your shaker.
  3. Double strain the cocktail into a coupe glass or over ice into a rocks glass.
  4. Add 2-3 dashes of Angostura bitters to the top foam layer of the drink.
  5. Express the oils of an orange peel over the drink, and add the remaining garnishes.
  6. Serve and enjoy!

What Does Egg White Do to a Cocktail? 

Adding egg white to a cocktail, like a whiskey sour, brings a velvety texture and a frothy, luxurious foam to the drink. In a whiskey sour, the egg white helps soften the citrus’s sharpness and balance the flavors, resulting in a smoother and more visually appealing cocktail. It adds a creamy element without altering the taste of the drink significantly.
