Western Sour

More bourbon enjoyment:

Western Sour

This is another nice tiki drink that uses bourbon as its base. I enjoyed it and I particularly noticed that this drink blends all the ingredients together nicely. It is so well-blended, that if I didn't know what was in it, I might have a hard time picking out the ingredients. Sometimes that is a negative, but in this case, I think it works.

While I enjoyed the drink, it doesn't make a lasting impression like the "Bourbon Special." In the future, I would probably increase the falernum and try a flavored syrup (cinnamon or fruit).

Ingredients I used:

White Grapefruit Juice
Fresh Lime Juice
Simple syrup
Velvet Falernum
Buffalo Trace Bourbon

My personal rating: *** (3) out of ***** (5)
