  • Made with Canadian whiskey and, per the comments, ~2/3 oz lemon (which may have been too much). Differences between this and a standard whiskey sour are subtle. — ☆☆☆
  • Peychaud's bitters instead
  • A whiskey sour but with Benedictine instead of simple. Tasty - could maybe try increasing lemon juice a bit, as this is decently sweet. — ☆☆☆
