Red Wine Whiskey Sour

This Red Wine Whiskey Sour is a delicious winter cocktail that mixes the best of both worlds in one glass. A whiskey sour layered with a bold Red wine and you have a match made in craft cocktail heaven.

I found this drink in the Dillon’s Small Batch Distillers Craft Cocktail book. It is so amazing I just had to share it. With ingredients found in most home bar’s cupboards and an easy to follow technique this drink is by all accounts a fan favourite.

Enjoy and Cheers!
