Our Bourbon Sour cocktail is bold, with big flavors: high-rye bourbon, blackstrap bitters, fresh orange juice. Crafted by Jason Yu, the Bourbon Sour comes cold and ready to serve.
High-rye bourbon bottled at 45% ABV in the top chamber is combined with small-batch bitters. This brings a layered, full-flavored depth along with the fresh lemon and orange juices. The orange juice helps bring down the acidity, which is normally reduced through egg whites — think of our Bourbon Sour as a refreshing version of the Old Fashioned.
Here is the exact recipe — no additives, artificial ingredients, flavorings, or colorants. Just pure cocktail goodness: 2.64 oz. bourbon (45% ABV); 8 drops blackstrap bitters; 0.95 oz. lemon juice; 0.44 oz. orange juice; 0.24 oz. water; 0.81 oz. simple syrup; 3 drops salt

Nothing Artificial
Cold-Pressed Ingredients
Bourbon
Our high-rye, high-proof bourbon is made strong enough to carry through. Because it’s delicious enough to sip neat, it pairs perfectly with all the other ingredients.
Lemon Juice
Sourced from farmer co-ops in California, cold-pressed lemon juice adds the right amount of acidity for this sour-style cocktail.
Orange Juice
The orange juice helps bring down the acidity, which is normally reduced through egg whites; it also lends a refreshing Old Fashioned–inspired feel to the cocktail.
Cane Sugar
The smallest amount of sugar is added to balance the acidity of the lemon juice.
Blackstrap Bitters
Full-bodied and earthy, with two types of molasses, three types of cinnamon, nutmeg, sassafras, and sarsaparilla aroma and flavors, these bitters bring a layered, full-flavored depth to the cocktail.
Water
Water is added to dilute the cocktail enough to be both sipped from the bottle when very cold and not too diluted over ice.
"In the beginning, like a lot of bartenders early into the field of recipe writing, I tried to fit as many obscure ingredients I could fit into a drink recipe to make that menu item seem more impressive, even though a lot of the time, it was just OK. I’ve obviously graduated from that and tailored my approach to more approachable, simpler recipes. These days it’s fewer ingredients. Fewer, but higher quality, more refined ingredients." - Jason Yu
I love these. Also so much easier to twist the bottle open now! Yay!

A solid choice
A delicious drink with good portions. I'm not much of a bourbon person but this sounded too good not to try
