The Cinnamon Maple Whiskey Sour is a cozy twist on the classic cocktail, blending the warmth of whiskey with the natural sweetness of maple syrup and a touch of cinnamon spice. Fresh lemon juice adds a refreshing citrus bite, balancing the flavors perfectly, while the cinnamon brings a subtle warmth, making it an ideal drink for cool evenings or festive occasions.
Tasting Notes
On the first sip, the rich and smooth flavor of the whiskey immediately shines through, followed by a bright tang from the lemon juice that lifts the palate. The maple syrup adds a deep, natural sweetness that mellows out the sharpness of the citrus, giving the drink a well-rounded, slightly earthy sweetness.
As the cocktail settles on your tongue, the hint of ground cinnamon brings a gentle warmth and subtle spice that lingers, leaving a cozy and comforting finish.
The drink’s balance is key—each ingredient complements the other without overpowering. The whiskey’s depth and character are enhanced by the sweetness of the maple and the zesty lemon, while the cinnamon adds a unique autumnal touch. This combination creates a rich, layered flavor profile that’s both refreshing and warming, making it a versatile cocktail for any season.
Tips & Tricks
Add egg white for a silky texture and frothy top, which will also smooth out the sharpness of the lemon juice.
Infuse the maple syrup with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for an earthy, aromatic twist.
Experiment with smoked cinnamon to introduce a subtle, smoky note that adds depth and complexity to the drink.
