Grapefruit Whiskey Sour

Grapefruit Whiskey Sour

This well-known variation on an iconic drink is a go-to every day, especially in the winter to take full use of the magnificent grapefruits that light up the grocery store aisles at that time of year. Instead of using lemon or lime, the grapefruit provides zest and a vibrant citrus finish to the sour mixture.

  • 2 tablespoons of fresh grapefruit juice
  • 28678-ingredients-0
  • 45 ml of Talisker 10 Single Malt Whisky

Method

You want to add about 5 ice cubes into the mix and shake well.

Strain the drink into an ice-filled rocks glass

Finish off by adding a grapefruit slice or an orange slice as a garnish.  

There are a few more things you can try to add a little something more to your grapefruit whisky sour.
