It's not enough to call this drink a Sour. It breaks off of the Sour family early on and sits somewhere more tropical with tea syrup and MurLarkey Three Tea Whiskey. This is a bit of a preview of MurLarkey's newest product that I can tell will be a handy tool in the craft bartending scene in Virginia. Three Tea Whiskey is made from infusing their white whiskey with Darjeeling, English Breakfast, and Earl Grey teas. It has a strong, earthy, and in the case of Earl Gray, floral scent that adds so much to a drink.
I thought a simple drink would then be to sweeten a basic Sour or Fix with MurLarkey whiskies with a black tea and demerara sugar syrup.
See how to make this on my Swedish Punsch recipe page.
The rest of the recipe follows:
- 1 1/2 oz. whiskey (MurLarkey Heritage used)
- 1/2 oz. MurLarkey Three Tea Whiskey
- 1/2 oz. black tea and demerara sugar syrup
- 1 oz. lemon juice
- orange and lemon twists and a maraschino cherry garnishes
Combine all ingredients except garnishes in a shaker with ice. Shake and pour into an Old Fashioned glass. Garnish with fruit peels and maraschino cherry.
