    Today I'm making a New York Sour! With the addition of a red wine float, this was an early riff on the whiskey sour and it dates back to the late 1800s. Does it work? Yes. Is it delicious? Yes. Is it pretty to look at? Yes. Is it from New York? Nope (I'll explain). With properly floated red wine, the New York Sour maintains a beautiful separation right down to the last sip. This one is for both the wine lovers and the cocktail enthusiasts out there - we all win! Cheers!

      What are your thoughts on the reverse dry shake? I have a tough time keeping the dry shake from exploding. And I can't taste any difference between the 2 (I'm a novice though).

    This has quickly become one of my favorites. My wife and I had a date night at Jose Andres' BarMini the other week and had a New York Sour sorbet. They partially froze the cocktail with liquid nitrogen, folded it into a sorbet, then floated the red wine on top. It was 🤯

  • @craig7948
    @craig7948 2 роки тому +15

    Love this cocktail. I was put off by the idea of wine mixing with a sour cocktail when I first heard about this. But after giving it a shot, I prefer it to a normal sour. The red wine gives a nice balance to the sweet/sour flavors of a normal whisky sour.

  • @richmosley2519

    @TheWhiskeyNerd 2 роки тому +25

    This is one of my favourite cocktails, and surprisingly versatile depending on the ingredients, you could try a port finished whiskey and really lean into the berry notes throughout the drink, or go whole hog and try a port float.
    I made one recently with a stout float up top and it was DELICIOUS! kinda like a dark chocolate and lemon candy.

  • @poforeman
    @poforeman 2 роки тому

    Started making these during the pandemic and it quickly became one of our faves. We use a stronger bourbon like Knob Creek or Wild Turkey 101. Love how simple it is to make and yet what a cool looking drink that makes a great impression with your guests!

    I made these as a treat for when my wife got home from work a ways back. She was late so I put them in the freezer to stay chilled. The wine ended up going just a bit slushy and we really loved it. 🤷🤷

    Thanks Anders. Really enjoying your channel from here in the UK. NY Sour had been one of my favourites for a while now. I tend to make the NY sour without egg white and the Whisky Sour with. For me it’s just become just two different ways of doing a sour.
    Have never tried it up though. Looking forward to giving this a go.

  • @paperjam538

    This was the first cocktail I made. (Had some bourbon and wine from some chicken recipes.) Maybe a year ago? I had to use a protein shaker. Shortly after that I dived in to drink mixing and found this marvelous channel! The New York Sour is still my all time favorite! Great drink

    Thank you Anders! I tried the New York Sour and absolutely loved it. This inspired me to try adding a red wine topper to a Rum Sour and Tequila Sour and they were both fantastic! The Tequila Sour especially... it was like Key Lime Pie with Meringue and a side of fresh berries.

  • @joewas2225
    @joewas2225 2 роки тому +6

    Whenever I make this I use a cask strength whiskey, usually Maker's Mark. For any type of sour. Maple syrup & Lemon juice. I rarely use simple syrup. For the wine I use Black Box Malbec.

    I always though that the idea of red wine in a whiskey sour sounded weird and a little off, so was afraid to try this. Boy, was I wrong... this was amazing! Thanks for highlighting this cocktail and encouraging me to try it! The flavor was so much richer, fruitier, rounder than a standard whiskey sour. My wife loved it too... said it reminded her of a sweet float sherbet punch, which I thought was strange at first but then could totally see. Cheers!

    New York Sours are great. Love the presentation. Love you guys. I like when Az gives things a taste. Different perspectives on drinks is always great because taste is subjective. Also…if I may…I have done construction work right around the corner from the bar you used to work at. I have shopped at the Mitsuwa that you shopped at for the plum wine episode and my mother in law is from Japan sooo…Kinda funny. Small world. Love the content. Keep ‘em coming.

    I fell in love with whisky sour using red wine syrup (as more often I have some leftover open wine that needs to be used up than actual open bottle of wine), something like 40ml rye 30ml lemon 20ml 1:1 red wine syrup + egg white/aquafaba

  • @lostscotsman
    @lostscotsman 2 роки тому

    Note for the original grain site. It tries to add in a free little bottle opener to your cart that disables your 30% discount.
    If you remove it, it will re-add it to the cart after a second or two. You have to remove that from cart and quickly hit checkout before it re-adds so you can actually get the 30%.

Unbeknownst to me, my partner that night thought he made a pretty decent New York sour too so it became a bit of a friendly contest to see who made a better one. I served the lady & he made one for the gentleman. When I saw him pull the rocks glass I thought back to your video & pulled out a chilled coupe & did your spoon trick. I’d been meaning to come here & let you know that thanks to your video I won that little competition & got a pretty nice tip to with it at the end of the night. So thanks Anders! I owe you one!
