No oddities today because the stars would not align properly - today we are having an All Request Summer Cocktail submission because August 25 is National Whiskey Sour Day!
Thanks to a Gentle Reader from Sewall's Point, for whom Whiskey Sours will forever be known as John Cheevers.
John Cheever Whiskey Sour
2 parts blended Irish Whiskey
1 part fresh lemon juice
1 part simple syrup
2 dashes bitters
Shake all the ingredients vigorously over ice in a cocktail shaker. Strain and
pour into a rocks glass filled with ice. Garnish with a maraschino cherry
and an orange slice.
"It was a splendid summer morning and it seemed as if nothing could go wrong."
John Cheever
