Daily Bite [Make]: Naturally Sweetend Whiskey Sours

This Thursday is National Whiskey Sour day, which normally would sound like a whole lotta fun and a whole lotta unhealthiness, but that ends today. Put down the store-bought, overly processed and sweetened sour mix, and get ready to make a healthier, naturally sweetened (and honestly, much tastier) version of the popular drink, so you can celebrate in true BSW style. This recipe from A Couple Cooks uses your favorite whiskey and all natural ingredients so you can sip without the guilt.

Is it Thursday yet? Because we’re thirsty.

(Side note: can we talk about how beautiful this picture is?)

Recipe as seen on A Couple Cooks:

Makes: 2 medium drinks

What You Need

• 3 tablespoons whiskey (we’re cooks, not bartenders, so we’re using standard measurements here…) (also equivalent to one shot)
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons water (more or less to taste)
• Ice

What To Do

1. Juice the lemon. Mix the whiskey, lemon juice, honey, and water.
2. Stir or shake until honey is dissolved. Serve over lots of ice. Adjust whiskey to taste.
