Whiskey Sour

Still tweaking the recipe on this one.  Just keep in mind that:

  • Any whiskey drink is better with bourbon.
  • And any bourbon drink is better with Maker's Mark.
Ingredients: 

1 fresh lemon
1 fresh lime
Whiskey of choice
Gomme syrup
Cherries for garnish
Rocks glasses

Preparation: 
  1. The day before, prepare the gomme syrup.
  2. Juice the fruits.  You're looking for 4 oz of juice, but more or less is fine.
  3. Combine 1 part juice with 1 part whiskey and 1 part gomme syrup.
  4. Allow that to sit an hour or so to mellow.
  5. Serve over ice in a rocks glass, garnished with a cherry.
