New whiskey/different day - recently had the opportunity to try out @blackenedamericanwhiskey - a project by THE MAN, @davepickerell (of @makersmark and @whistlepigwhiskey). Its 56% bourbon, 43% rye and 1% corn, finished in black brandy casks. I figured it would hold up really well in a stiff riff on a spicy NY Sour. Recipe below!

ingredients:

• 2 oz American Whiskey

• ¾ oz Barrel Aged Maple Syrup

• ¾ oz Fresh Lemon Juice

• ¼ Cooper & Thief Barrel Aged Red

• 5 Drops NO NO Bitters

• Dehydrated Lemon Wheel

tools:

• Shaking Tins

• Jigger (Japanese Style)

• Hawthorne Strainer

• Fine Strainer

• Glassware

• Other Tools

• Complete Bartending Set

instructions:

Combine all ingredients except wine in a shaking tin with ice. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Pour and strain over rocks glass filled with crushed ice. Slowly pour the barrel aged red over the cocktail. Garnish with dehydrated lemon wheel. Serve and enjoy!
