The Peach Whiskey Sour is perfect as summer begins to wind down—and here’s why: the temperatures keep rising, but the countdown for the new school year has begun, and the hectic holiday season is right around the corner. Our Peach Whiskey Sour has summer flavors (peach and citrus) and a clean, smooth finish to remind you to slow down and enjoy these last few dog days of summer while you can.
Here at 360 Blue, we have cocktail aficionados who are ardent fans of adding egg whites to their recipes, and those who prefer a simpler bartending experience. If you’re feeling adventurous, give both a try and let us know which you prefer.
