I'm sorry but all sour mix is garbage and belongs in the trash. It's one disagreement I have with Beachbum Berry (along with his use of bottled OJ in California where fresh oranges are so cheap). Make your own sour mix: fresh lemon juice and simple syrup.

You shouldn't have to be sorry when you're right. Which, of course, you are. All hail The Jab.

Home-made sour mix is so easy to make and so infinitely better than any kind you can purchase. O RLY? YA RLY.

My favorite recipe is 1/2 part lime, 1/2 part lemon, 1 part simple syrup. I mean, A good mixologist is going to have fresh lime and lemon juice already for his/her drinks anyway, right? (nod your head yes)
