Whiskey Sour with Pineapple Juice

We usually make Whiskey Sours with Lime Juice, but since we were going to make some Pina Coladas we did not want to waste the pineapple juice - and we had a little extra whiskey.

Using pineapple juice is certainly not as sour as lime or lemon juice but it provides a much more tropical feel and when it is 100 degrees out that is a relief. All these methods for making sour drinks are very similar you basically use something sweet, something sour and a liquor.

If you always use the ratios of

• 1 part liquor
• 1 part sour juice
• 1/4 part simple syrup

you can create anything using any juice or liquor.

Method

Combine simple syrup, whiskey and pineapple juice and shake with ice. We prefer a Boston Shaker. Strain into a cocktail or bar glass.
