National Whiskey Sour Day

Yes, behind as I am, I will finish with my food endeavors this month! Do not worry, I plan to play catch up very soon.

August 25th marked National Whiskey Sour Day. Yes, a celebration of this iconic drink and is an original cocktail from Jerry Thomas' Bartender's Guide from 1862. I made one myself at the luxury of my home. Equal parts of whiskey, lemon juice, a little bit of sugar and of course, a cherry and orange wedge make this classic never fail.
