Whiskey Cocktails to Drink when it's Cold #67

The next couple of days will be frigid no matter what the Groundhog says. Here's a drink to get through it.

Pickle Juice Whiskey Sour.

3 oz bourbon

1 oz dill pickle juice

Juice of 1/2 lemon

Old Bay seasoning, for rim

Cornichons, for garnish

Lemon Slices, for garnish

DIRECTIONS

Combine bourbon, pickle juice and lemon juice in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake until the outside of the cocktail shaker feels cold.
Run a lemon slice around the rims of two cocktail glasses, then dip the rims in Old Bay.
Pour the bourbon mixture into glasses and garnish each with a cornichon and lemon slice.

The cool thing about this drink is that it combines the whiskey and the chaser all in one shot. Plus that pickle juice taste will cut anything including some whiskeys. The Bourbon, however, has a sweetness that would rise above the taste and actually add to the flavor. As a man, I probably wouldn't use the pickle garnish but then again it 's up to you. The recipe comes from Delish.com.
