The Eastern Sour is a classic tiki cocktail that uses whiskey instead of rum.
Originally created at Trader Vic's in Oakland, California, in the 1950s, this classic tiki recipe—which uses bourbon or rye instead of rum—has been slightly modified by Brother Cleve.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 oz. rye or bourbon
- 2 ½ oz. orange juice
- ¾ oz. lemon juice
- ¼ oz. orgeat
- ¼ oz. simple syrup
DIRECTIONS
Combine all ingredients in a shaker tin; add ice and shake. Strain into a rocks glass over a 1×1 inch ice cube or serve up in a cocktail glass.
