Cheers to spring with a Whiskey Sour Sunrise! Whiskey, freshly squeeze lemon juice and homemade cherry simple syrup makes for one excellent adult beverage! Yields 2 drinks in minutes.
GAH! An alcoholic drink on simply scratch. Well, not the first if you count this baileys milkshake. But lets get real. It’s basically the first one since 2017. With that said, I’ll let you in on a little secret. Over the last year or so, I’ve really looked into making cocktails. Classics and originals, the whole idea mixing and concocting alcoholic drinks fascinates me.
In the past my typical go to was a glass of malbec, margarita or rum and coke, but I wanted to broaden my horizons and order something fun every once in a while and know what it is I’m actually ordering. So I started researching classic recipes and mastering them at home, like this one I’m sharing today. It starts with a whiskey sour and then morphed into this whiskey sour sunrise drink after I used the cherry syrup from this recipe.
So what is a whiskey sour sunrise? It’s a classic whiskey sour but instead of a plain simple syrup I sweeten this drink with a homemade cherry simple syrup.
