Yuzu Whiskey Sour
Bourbon, Lemon, Elderflower Liqueur, Egg White, Yuzu honey tea, yuzu juice
This is a straightforward but elevated whiskey sour from Jigger and Pony in Singapore. With yuzu honey tea as the main variation from the traditional whiskey sour, the cocktail is refreshed with a bit of that yuzu tartness and juiciness, further bolstered by a bit of elderflower liqueur and a bar spoon of yuzu juice. From the videos I’ve seen prep can be made ahead of time by mixing and infusing the yuzu honey with the bourbon, which would further extract the yuzu flavor, and prepping the egg whites into a squeeze bottle.
1.5 oz bourbon
.5 oz lemon juice
.5 oz eggwhite
2 tsp yuzu honey tea
bar spoon elderflower liqueuer
bar spoon yuzu juice
Add bourbon and yuzu honey tea into a shaker, muddle until fully dissolved. Then add the rest of the ingredients and shake to emulsify egg whites. Add ice to tin, then shake until cold. Pour into a coupe glass, garnish with a sprig of thyme.
