Whiskey Cocktails

From smoky Scotch to smooth bourbon, whiskey has been the backbone of cocktail culture since the 1800s. The Old Fashioned — arguably the original cocktail — set the template that bartenders still riff on today. Whether it's the bracing bite of rye in a Manhattan or the honeyed warmth of bourbon in a Mint Julep, whiskey cocktails reward bold flavors and simple construction. They're drinks built for sipping slow, and they've outlasted every trend the bar world has thrown at them.
