A rye whiskey sour sweetened with maple and simple syrup, brightened with fresh lemon.
4 steps, about 3 minutes start to finish.
Add rye whiskey, lemon juice, simple syrup, maple syrup, and bitters to a shaker with ice.
Shake vigorously.
Strain into a rocks glass with ice.
Garnish as desired.
“Real maple syrup is doing the sweetening, so shake it hard to blend it fully with the rye. Strain over one big cube if you can, the slower melt keeps it balanced longer.”
