Bordeaux Sour

A whisky sour. Topped with red wine. Trust us.

A whisky sour… with red wine on top. Trust us. 

Our Bordeaux Cask brings dark berries and chocolate. Lemon brings tartness. The red wine floats on top like a liquid garnish. 

Eye-catching and easy to make.   

WHAT YOU’LL TASTE 

Smooth whisky. Tart lemon. Sweet red wine. Dark berries and chocolate underneath.  

WHAT YOU’LL NEED 

  • 35ml Speyburn Bordeaux Cask
  • 25ml fresh lemon juice
  • 15ml sugar syrup
  • 2 dashes of bitters
  • Egg white or aqua faba
  • Red wine (for the float)
  • Ice 

 HOW TO MAKE IT 

  1. Add whisky, lemon juice, sugar syrup, bitters, and egg white to a cocktail shaker. 

  2. Dry shake for 15 seconds (no ice). 

  3. Add ice. Shake for 20 seconds. 

  4. Strain into a glass. 

  5. Slowly pour red wine over the back of a spoon so it floats on top. 

  6. Drink. 

WHY IT WORKS 

Our Bordeaux Cask is finished in red wine casks from France. Dark berries. Chocolate. Spice. The lemon balances that richness. The red wine float ties it all together.

Plus it looks good, which never hurts. 

 MAKING IT WITHOUT EGGS

Skip the egg white entirely for a thinner texture. Or use aqua faba – the liquid from tinned chickpeas. Same foam. No eggs.
