FIELD LOG
Eastern Sour
The Eastern Sour offers a citrusy twist on the whiskey sour, perfect for those seeking a touch of the tropics. Bourbon whiskey forms its base, providing a warming and slightly smoky character. Freshly squeezed orange and lemon juices add a vibrant tartness, with the orange juice offering a unique twist compared to the classic sour's lemon-only profile. Orgeat syrup, with its almond and marzipan notes, lends a touch of nutty sweetness that complements the citrus and bourbon. Shaken and served straight up, often garnished with a sprig of mint and an orange slice, the Eastern Sour is a refreshing and complex cocktail that's perfect for summer sipping.
