Today we have another great recipe from Marlon Hall. The Bourbon Sour uses homemade sour mix and the recipe is great for highlighting a quality bourbon. Be sure to check out Marlon’s excellent blog here http://marlonhall.wordpress.com/

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Wild Turkey 101
• 1 oz fresh-squeezed lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 egg white (optional—use if you’re feeling mildly adventurous, or need a drink with a little more gravitas)

Procedure:

Pour ingredients into a cocktail shaker, fill with ice and shake for 10 seconds. If using the egg white, you will need to dry shake( shake without ice to insure egg white emulsifies ) first. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass, or into an ice-filled Old Fashioned glass. Garnish with a cherry, a slice of lemon, or nothing at all.

Enjoy!
