Clarified New York Sour
Let me make this clear…
Together with my friends at @bonterra, I’ve clarified one of my favorite cocktails, The New York Sour. Traditionally made with bourbon, lemon juice, simple syrup then topped with red wine. In this case, I’m clarifying this cocktail using the milk punch technique where we use the acid in lemon juice to bind with the milk solids to produce a crystal clear, delicate and delicious whiskey sour. Today I’m using Bonterra’s Pinot Noir to compliment due to its rich and bold notes that is the perfect floater for this cocktail.
Cheers y’all!
ingredients:
¾ Part Bonterra Pinot Noir (Floater)
1½ Part Bourbon or Rye
1 Part Lemon Juice
¾ Part Simple Syrup
¾ Part Whole Milk
instructions:
Combine bourbon, lemon juice and simple syrup into a mason jar and shake. Add mixture to whole milk and let it settle for 2 hours in the fridge. Once curds form, strain through a coffee filter until clear. Add clarified cocktail over ice in a rocks glass. Float #Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon over top and enjoy.
