Vodka Sour
New York, United States|Prep Time: 4 min
Unlike whiskey based sours that lean on barrel character, the Vodka Sour focuses on precision and structure. Lemon juice delivers brightness, sugar syrup smooths the edges, and egg white creates a refined foam layer that enhances mouthfeel. Aromatic bitters bring subtle depth, turning a minimalist ingredient list into a polished classic style sour experience
