Hey, Reader!

Foodie holidays are a fun way to get out of your cocktail rut and try something totally different! Next week we'll celebrate Whiskey Sour Day on August 25, a foamy sip with a multitude of variations.

But the whiskey sour is just one drink in the "Sour" family of cocktails. Sours always contain a spirit, some sort of sweetener and some kind of citrus. These recipes are an excellent starting point, but once you get the hang of it, try one with your favorite flavors and see how you like it!

tequila sour

The whiskey sour is a classic β€” for good reason β€” but versatile enough to try with a different spirit! The tequila sour is spirited and fun, reminiscent of a margarita but with the iconic foamy top that's ready for taco night.

aquavit sour

This aquavit sour cocktail is full of so much flavor. Aquavit has the flavors of caraway and dill, making this an unexpectedly delicious drink when paired with a peach simple syrup, orgeat and lime juice.

cherry vodka sour

A cherry vodka sour is bursting with the natural sweetness of cherries and smooth vodka. The cocktail is the ideal balance of tart and sweet, perfect to sip on all summer long!

pomegranate lemonade

This easy pomegranate lemonade is a refreshing combination of tangy lemon and sweet pomegranate flavors, creating a refreshing drink that is perfect for any occasion.

The classic whiskey sour is a fan favorite β€” I hope you enjoy these other options just as much!

Cheers!
​Susannah
