Filibuster Maple Whiskey Cocktail

Date: June 9, 2017 Category:

San Francisco bartender Erik Adkins uses the basic Whiskey Sour blueprint for this autumn-inspired drink. Instead of simple syrup, Adkins substitutes Dark Robust maple syrup to create a deep, frothy cocktail topped with spicy Angostura bitters. The Filibuster throws a bit of heat thanks to its strong rye backbone; Adkins recommends using a lower proof rye in order to preserve the egg white’s foam.
