DESCRIPTION:

Are you a fan of cocktails full of flavour? Try this Tangy Hot & Sour Whisky Lime cocktail recipe this holiday. A perfect balance of sweet, sour and heat, the magical combination is somehow equally hot and spicy, yet cool and refreshing. 

Did you know this drink started as a classic Whisky Sour? Its original warmth came purely from the bourbon or rye whiskey in it. Our variation starts in the same way – with a smoky whisky as your liquor base, diluted in a homemade simple syrup and ice, and soured with a tot of lime juice. The difference is in what brings the heat. We recommend sambal oelek – an Indonesian chilli sauce. 

Enjoy your Tangy Hot & Sour Whisky Lime shaken not stirred and on the rocks. The ingredients are available at Checkers.
