The Whiskey Sour: A Timeless Formula

The Whiskey Sour dates to 1870 and follows the fundamental cocktail formula: spirit + sweet + sour. Understanding this template unlocks every sour-style cocktail.

The Egg White Debate

Adding egg white creates a silky, luxurious foam. Omit it for a crisper, more direct drink. Either way is correct β€” it’s a stylistic choice.
