Scotch Sour

The Scotch Sour is a sophisticated twist on the classic whiskey sour, featuring a smooth blend of Scotch whisky, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Served over ice and often garnished with a lemon wheel or cherry, this cocktail balances the smoky richness of Scotch with the tart brightness of citrus, creating a refreshing yet complex flavor profile. Perfect for those who appreciate the depth of Scotch while enjoying a vibrant drink.
