Story and flavor
A seasonal riff on the classic Whiskey Sour, the Cranberry Whiskey Sour blends American whiskey with fresh lemon and tart cranberry for a festive balance of sweet, sour, and bright red fruit. Emerging from New England holiday menus in the late 20th century, this variation keeps the traditional shaken structure while adding a crisp, vivid cranberry profile that feels both familiar and modern.
