One of the most iconic sours, the Whisky Sour originated sometime in the late 1800s and remained extremely popular during Prohibition. It is most often made with bourbon, but other whiskeys can be used, and served up or on the rocks, with or without egg white. This is an edited extract from Spirited by Adrienne Stillman (RRP $69.96). Photography by Andy Sewell.
