Recipe

This whiskey sour riff keeps the classic whiskey, lemon, and shaken-cocktail structure, then uses peach preserves as the main sweetener. A small measure of simple syrup rounds out the fruit while keeping the drink tart, bright, and recognizable as a sour.
For the cocktail | |
|---|---|
2 | ounces bourbon whiskey |
3⁄4 | ounce lemon juice, fresh |
1 | tablespoon peach preserves |
1⁄4 | ounce simple syrup |
1 | piece egg white |
2 | dashes aromatic bitters |
1 | piece lemon twist |
| 1. | Chill a coupe or rocks glass while you build the drink. |

| 2. | Add the bourbon, lemon juice, peach preserves, simple syrup, and egg white to a cocktail shaker. |
| 3. | Shake without ice for 10 seconds to loosen the preserves and foam the egg white. |
| 4. | Add ice and shake hard until the shaker feels very cold, about 15 seconds. |
| 5. | Fine-strain the cocktail into the chilled glass. |
| 6. | Dot the foam with bitters and garnish with the lemon twist. |
