Bartender tips

Don't like egg white? Replace it with Aquafaba (chickpea brine).


The term "dry shake" is used to mix the ingredients and create a foam with the egg white without overly diluting the cocktail from the melting ice cubes.

Origins of the cocktail

The Whisky Sour emerged in the 19th century as a sailor's remedy against scurvy, thanks to its main ingredient, lemon. Having become a classic in American bars, it is famous for its balance between the robustness of whisky and the tangy freshness. Today, it is appreciated worldwide for its elegant simplicity and distinctive taste. In a delightful variation, the cocktail is also crafted with Amaretto, offering a sweet almond twist that complements the sour profile, creating a unique and beloved version known as the Amaretto Sour.
