In order for a whiskey sour to be truly great, you've got to squeeze your lemons fresh. You'll end up with a cocktail that, unlike most whiskey drinks, is actually refreshing. This is something you'd want to sip on while sitting on the front porch.
NEW: You can now switch to Cook Mode to keep your screen awake.
Directions
Separate egg and whisk egg whites just enough to break down for easy measuring. Set aside. In a mixing glass, combine lemon juice, simple syrup, bourbon, egg whites, and bitters. Dry shake (without ice) to emulsify ingredients. Add ice cubes, seal, and shake again. Strain whiskey sour into a chilled glass with ice. To garnish, spear one end of the orange slice with a cocktail pick, then the cherry, then the other end of the orange slice; place atop the drink and serve.
