Thanks to this comment, the wife and I are now trying to make hummus this weekend xD thanks for the idea! Also I get to drink while we make the hummus and pita bread xD
I tried your approach too, but before I knew it, the chickpea juice along with half a bottle of bourbon was all gone, I was way buzzed and the idea of homemade hummus was just as distant as my next-day recovery.
This! Subscribed after like 2 videos just because of how fun Anders is having when making cocktails. I love his “it’s your drink, make it however the fuck you want” approach. It’s refreshing compared to some other videos!
I’ve been watching your videos for a while because they were recommended to me by UA-cam . I finally saw this video and decided to subscribe. You are a great teacher and I love that are very considerate of diets and food allergies. I ended up trying this drink, because my boyfriend loves whiskey sours. In fact he was a bartender so he has made me quite a few drinks over the years. I decided this was the perfect drink to impress him with and boy did it impress him. He loved it so much it inspired him to make drinks again and he found you and now is not a subscriber as well. Thank you so much for inspiring us.
Here's a tip to save your aquafaba so you will have some on hand rather than discard a good portion of it after 3 days. Portion them into ice cube trays. Let them freeze. Each cube will be 1 oz. Remove them from the tray(s) and store them in a brown paper bag so they don't stick together. One cube can be used for 2 drinks. So if you thaw 2 then you can make 4 drinks...etc. Don't waste that aquafaba. KEEP AND USE THAT GOLD! :P
Anders these videos are so helpful and I'm learning so much. Thanks for sharing all your experience in the bartending field. Keep up the great vids and Cheers!
I really wanted to see how you separate the egg, I always struggle with that. I’m going through all your videos in chronological order, and I love them!
I went to a cool little bar in Poland and had a drink called a whiskey sour jam session. Id never heard of it before. It's basically the same as your recipe but with orange marmalade in it. And it was amazing.
This is the best whiskey sour I've ever made or had. I'd put it up against any bar cocktail I've ever had. I have no problem with eggs...and have only ever made my whiskey sours with them...but the aquafaba is a fantastic alternative and may actually result in a drink that allows the whiskey to shine a bit more! Pro tip: Search for the Anders recipe before making any cocktail! The demerera syrup really elevates this. Thank you! ❤❤
A secret I’ve learned with the egg whites, I pre froth them with one of those cheap hand held coffee cream frothers. It really makes for a nice foam and makes sure that egg whites is good and broken up.
This is how I make my whiskey sours, but I sub the bitters for a tiny sprinkle of nutmeg on top of the egg foam. It mellows out the citrus notes and provides a little balance imho. Great content, keep it up!
I have a pistachio martini recipe that calls for a dusting of nutmeg on top. Works. (Oh, a Porto Flip (which uses the egg yolk!) also calls for nutmeg.)
I have a little atomizer with absinthe in it. One recipe (Tuxedo martini) calls for an absinthe rinse and I found an atomizer to be so much simpler to use.
@@kevinbrugos5667 45 ml Amaretto 15 ml Bourbon 30 ml lemon juice (not super) 15 ml simple 15 ml egg white Don't be put off by the bourbon of which I am not a fan, but it works here.
@@maremacd It turned out well! I couldn't taste anything beany, and it made it a bit creamier than I usually make them. As for brands, I'm not sure. I buy my beans dried in bulk usually, soak them, then boil them myself. But when I need aquafaba, what I do after soaking is boil them in water that's about an inch over the beans, and I don't skim off the froth that rises when they are about to boil (I will skim that off if I don't need aquafaba). Once on a boil, I lower to medium heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Usually there's enough liquid to boil in, but I add some if it's low. To get the aquafaba, when done, I just strain the beans and catch the remaining liquid in a bowl, then refrigerate it so it cools. That's what I did this time. Probably more work than you care to do for a drink XD But I eat a lot of chickpeas, so it's just one extra step for me.
I often make crispy roasted chickpeas as a potato chip alternate since i have diabetes. I use olive oil and Cajun/blackened spices for a nice bar side snack. Good time for the whiskey sour.
Hi from Japan, Anders! I have only recently gotten into making cocktails at home and luckily came across your channel. I tried a whiskey sour but as I do not have any rye yet I made it with Buffalo Trace. It was great! So a big thanks to you! I am looking forward to trying out more and really appreciate your videos. Thanks again!
Is the decision of what Syrup to use (simple vs demerara) going by the classic recipe or a personal decision? What's the main lavour profile difference between them and does it make a big difference in the final Cocktail?
In fact you can always use aquafaba as substite of egg white. For example to make vegan mayo 'cause it emulgates with oil vegan meringue pavlova is not a problem as well
I just discovered your channel and absolutely love your knowledge and exuberance! I'm gearing up to create a home bar and you are a perfect for research. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
On my second class of making cocktails I got to do a whisky sour, and I've never separated an egg white before. It was a critical moment, but I did it just fine
So I was taught to shake opposite of this, I shake all ingredients *sans egg white* with ice, strain into lid of my shaker, then dry shake those chilled ingredients with egg, double strain. I know it sounds weird but it works surprisingly well!
Pro tip for when doing the dry shake, put your shaker cups together parallel instead of angled. This will create a circularly symmetrical seal that gets strengthened under pressure rather than popping off during the shake. A face full of foamy egg white isn't a good look, unless you're into that sort of thing. ;)
Tried my first whiskey sour in 25 years based on your video. Conclusions: - Given the pain in the arse that can be getting the egg whites separated, wish you would include a tips and tricks for egg whites - felt like by double straining, I lost more of the foam from the egg white - realized I generally prefer almost any other drink to a whiskey sour (but value your advice)
To seperate an Egg, simply crack the Egg and Put it in a Bowl WITHOUT breaking the yolk (so carefully). Then use your fingers to remove the yolk. You won't Break it because your Fingers are very sensitive and the yolk is actually quite sturdy If you don't touch it with anything sharp.
I made a whisky sours exactly how you did only i didnt have any demarara left, used laphroaig as my whisky and i can say i was not happy. Not sure if i just dont like whisky sours as a drink or i somehow screwed up but my measures where right as well as execution. Must try at some bar soon:/
Thanks for this channel, so glad I found it. Quick question. If I was making 2, would I just double up the amounts and make them both at the same time in the same shaker?
You could, Gordon! If you’re using the egg white or aquafaba, the dry shake can make the drink expand - so be sure you’re shaking tin is large enough to accommodate both drinks!
I tried this the other night using your ratios and thought it was great! Especially with the demerara, which I hadn't tried in a sour before. That said, I noticed most versions call for 2 oz of whiskey. Are you dialing it back for balance purposes or just to have a less boozy cocktail?
I made my first just now, used Ander's basic template but with 2oz of bourbon and slightly heavy measures of everything else to avoid screwing with the balance too much. It's a fantastic drink, I'll be making it again without a doubt, but even with the extra bourbon I wouldn't say it's whiskey forward. It's there, it's present, it's balanced, but I almost wonder if it would feel a little lost with just 1 1/2 oz. I'm sure his ratio would work fine, he's a professional, but I don't think you need to be worried about chucking an extra half oz in there if you want a bit more booze or bourbon flavour.
Dude, no. Just... no. This isn't a drink that will do well sitting around in a pitcher. If you wish to serve a lot of them quickly, then throw all the ingredients except ice into a blender, and give it a quick whiz, then use a large shaker with ice to shake it in batches of two.
So I hardly got any foam. What does that usually mean? I used no salt added aqua fava. I didn’t have big ice for the shaker. I used ice out of the ice machine. I also used simple syrup that was store-bought.
I can't be sure, but sometimes if the ice you're using breaks up easily it can become crushed and either over dilute the drink or simply catch the foam as you pour the drink - keeping it from pouring with the rest of the cocktail. Hope this helps - don't give up 🥃
So...retrieved the aquafaba (bean water) from a can of garbanzos, and made a couple Sours (and spicy roasted chickpeas, which came in handy like, right away), and yeah, they were good! Like...really good...like, this will be the go-to in the future. The great thing about a couple (...5...) whiskeys is that you come to the inevitable "salmonella be damned" moment when you NEED to know what a Whiskey Sour tastes/feels like. IF YOU HAVE NO FEAR, a proper egg white Whiskey Sour is better by a factor of at least 6 - so smooth and creamy, without being cloying; light and refreshing, but fills your mouth. Worth it. Use fresh eggs.
OK, I have to ask. How long have you been using chickpea water in your drinks and where did you find out about it being a good analog for egg whites? I'm assuming it works so well because it's a protein solution...maybe you could use lima bean water? kidney bean? pinto bean? Chili bean for the more Tex Mex experience
I first found out about it quite some time ago, but I haven’t tried it with other beans. What’s great about the chickpeas is the neutral flavor. I found it to be more neutral than even the egg white. I like your “Tex Mex experience” idea though!
Great video, Anders. As the Ramos Fizz video from Behind The Bar demonstrated, youtube is pretty poluted with cocktail channels these days (& it even omitted the big dog himself from HTD). So I was curious to see how yours stacks up, being made ~ 9 months ago. I have to say, this video really proved out that you have a good fit. The uniqueness of using aquafaba & the demonstration of the heart garnish were both unique factors from other Whisky Sour videos. Finally, I think your editing, camera work & set (/ home) are all wonderful. Subscribed. Keep making videos!
Thank you so much, Mark! It's true, there are a ton of cocktail channels out there right now, so I'm really glad you found us. Your comment and support is really appreciated. Welcome to the channel! 🥃
Just tried my 4th whiskey sour of the past few days but this time basing it off of this recipe, Anders. It came out cool and all but then I realized I had ZERO effing ice cubes in the freezer. I’m devastated. I’m Sipping on a nicely executed whiskey sour but it’s freaking warm 😥😥😥😠😠😠 I got the egg white to behave this time but now the whole damn drink is like half a degree lower than room temperature
The last few times I’ve made a whiskey sour it doesn’t have the nice foam on top. I did it with the egg yolk both times. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
I spent this last weekend making about 12 gin/whiskey sours and it was the only cocktail recipe I've ever made that didn't look like advertised🤔🤔, I kept adjusting the amount of egg whites, shaking time, ect..But could never get that clear base look with the foam on top😣😣, everytime it came out completely foamy looking,, without that classic 1 finger foam on top??? Maybe I'm just OCD, but could I have done something wrong?? I used regular white eggs, should I have used the more expensive brown eggs?? I probably did everything right but it didn't have that foam layer on top of a clear liquor/brown liquor/look?? Maybe I'm behing too picky?? What's your expertise advice??
I just noticed that the clock in the background stays at 5:00 the whole time - a perfect reminder that its always 5 o'clock somewhere. Love it.
Good eye! Time doesn’t exist at my bar 😂
Great catch, and great idea! Cheers to that!
I bought a can of chickpeas to make Hummus AND Whiskey Sour specifically….Let me tell you, this is the best decision I made this week 🥰🙌🏻
I trriiieeeddd to taste the chickpeas in a side by side comparison - nope. What a perfect substitute and you get quite a few drinks out of one can.
Thanks to this comment, the wife and I are now trying to make hummus this weekend xD thanks for the idea! Also I get to drink while we make the hummus and pita bread xD
I tried your approach too, but before I knew it, the chickpea juice along with half a bottle of bourbon was all gone, I was way buzzed and the idea of homemade hummus was just as distant as my next-day recovery.
Got to say, I like your style of presenting cocktail making. It's bright and friendly with some clear instruction and background. Keep it up!

I learn something new on every one of your videos. This channel is a hidden gem.
Yolks aside...I love whiskey sours.
I saw what you did there 😏
Egg-selent joke
All yolks aside, tho’ ...
I was about to comment that there's no yolks in a whiskey sour but then I got it
A real yolkster.
I love your video as always. I wish you had a bar in my city. That would be my go to place.
Thanks, David! Cheers to you!
Anders these videos are so helpful and I'm learning so much. Thanks for sharing all your experience in the bartending field. Keep up the great vids and Cheers!
Thank you so much, Matt! Cheers to you!
I just discovered your channel and I’m 1000% hooked! Finally someone comparing aquafaba and egg white ✨
BRB binge watching all your videos 😂
Great channel! You're in for a treat!
Thanks for including Aqua Faba! As a vegan, that means a lot
Wow!!!!! Awesome and I love the end with the bitters made into hearts!!!!!!! Sooooo cool!!!!!!
I really wanted to see how you separate the egg, I always struggle with that.

Get an egg separator, they are easy to use, you can totally do it

Best way, put in the tin already when shaking the angostura bitters, gives the taste😊
I thought the whiskey sour sounded absolutely disgusting horrible when I first heard what it was, it's AMAZING! The egg white makes it as well!
What? What an amazing option 😲 wow! Cool man! Thanks for that 👍
Really good with the aquafaba, exceeded my expectations ❤
What is popular drink with makers mark ? Thanks ! ❤
Any bourbon drink is going to be good with Makers Mark.
This is how I make my whiskey sours, but I sub the bitters for a tiny sprinkle of nutmeg on top of the egg foam. It mellows out the citrus notes and provides a little balance imho. Great content, keep it up!
I gotta try that!
I have a pistachio martini recipe that calls for a dusting of nutmeg on top. Works. (Oh, a Porto Flip (which uses the egg yolk!) also calls for nutmeg.)
a work of art ...
We had our fourth kid after following these two recipes. Thanks
Try spritzing the bitters with an atomizer. Creates a nice look on the top of your foam and more evenly disburses the bitters on top of the drink
I have a little atomizer with absinthe in it. One recipe (Tuxedo martini) calls for an absinthe rinse and I found an atomizer to be so much simpler to use.
My favorite cocktail right here!
I've been studying your videos and I just made my first craft cocktail - Amaretto Sour using the egg white. So yummy.
Have you tried or are you doing Jeffery Morgenthaler's amaretto sour?
@@brokenrecord3523 is correct. Jefferey Morgenthaler's version is the best version of this cocktail.
@@kevinbrugos5667
45 ml Amaretto
15 ml Bourbon
30 ml lemon juice (not super)
15 ml simple
15 ml egg white
Don't be put off by the bourbon of which I am not a fan, but it works here.
Back in the 1960s my folks would sometimes have a Whiskey Sour as a nightcap on weekends in the summer. Miss them.
Making one of these tonight! Thanks for sharing a recipe with egg alternative!
How did the aquafaba work out? May I ask what brand of chickpeas you used? Brands differ in consistency. Thanks.
@@maremacd It turned out well! I couldn't taste anything beany, and it made it a bit creamier than I usually make them.

Never had a whiskey sour because of the egg whites, & I never thought about trying it with aquafaba. Sold! I gotta get some of that sugar, too.
Really appreciate you making a vegan version, thank you!
I often make crispy roasted chickpeas as a potato chip alternate since i have diabetes. I use olive oil and Cajun/blackened spices for a nice bar side snack. Good time for the whiskey sour.
Great video. Personally I prefer the traditional egg whites but having a choice makes life easier.
Exactly! This way everyone gets an option 👌

You’re El jefe ! Amazing brother I love your cocktail and your style
Thanks for the aquafaba tip, got to try that as many of friends are put off when I mention the drink has egg whites
can't wait to try this one
No sour faces here as your whiskey sours are our fave! Sips, tips and recipes should be your tag line! 🙌🙌
Who wouldn’t want sips, tips, and recipes??
@@AndersEricksonI prefer to make these sours into flips. The yolk is where the flavor is. Call it a whisky over easy.
I may have made a chickpea curry tonight just so that we could have whisky sours with aquafaba afterwards. 🥃 🍋 🧊 Worth it! So delicious!
May I ask what brand of chickpeas you used? Brands differ in consistency. Thanks.
Where can I get those beakers/Vials he uses for the Syrup and Aquafaba
Really enjoyable video of a very useful comparison. You two are a great team, by the way.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you so much!
Everyone should have an Az to have their back👍
Thanks for the plant based option. I've always wanted to try a whiskey sour and now I can.
Great video! And taste is wonderful. Can’t get the egg to foam up like that though, it stays murky. Doing something wrong…?
Are you dry shaking first?
In fact you can always use aquafaba as substite of egg white. For example to make vegan mayo 'cause it emulgates with oil vegan meringue pavlova is not a problem as well
What bar do you work at? I’d love to visit!

Oh wow, how interesting and very cool.
On my second class of making cocktails I got to do a whisky sour, and I've never separated an egg white before. It was a critical moment, but I did it just fine
When you make your Demerara syrup, in your glass carafe, do you have a cork stopper or cover for it? How do you store it and for how long?
thanks.
Never tried it with aquafaba... but I'm in.
Dude, love your content!
Just made the egg version and it's a great experience 👍
Thank you
So I was taught to shake opposite of this, I shake all ingredients *sans egg white* with ice, strain into lid of my shaker, then dry shake those chilled ingredients with egg, double strain. I know it sounds weird but it works surprisingly well!
You should try the Singani sour 👌
Yooo youre on point
Pro tip for when doing the dry shake, put your shaker cups together parallel instead of angled. This will create a circularly symmetrical seal that gets strengthened under pressure rather than popping off during the shake. A face full of foamy egg white isn't a good look, unless you're into that sort of thing. ;)
I concur. This _is_ a good tip... from Jeffery Morganthaler, right?
I know you recommend fresh lime/lemon juice. The same goes for egg whites? Or can I use the packaged egg whites? Thanks!!
Tried my first whiskey sour in 25 years based on your video.
Conclusions:
- Given the pain in the arse that can be getting the egg whites separated, wish you would include a tips and tricks for egg whites

Have you used or heard of Quillaja saponaria bark (quillajia saponins) for foaming cocktails?
Hey Anders! Just wondering if carton egg whites suffice...?
How do you feel about some of those egg white alternatives like the Noroi bottles?
Would love to see a video of what your personal favourite cocktails are!!
My favorite drink! Love whiskey sours! ...I can't bring myself to try Aquafaba haha..
Haha. Drink what you like! If you're a fan of egg white, then I believe that's what you should have. Cheers!
Could I use pre packaged egg white
Hi Anders, I have a hard time getting that much foam and thickness in the drink. Is it because I under shake? Thanks
I got chickpeas just to do this, and learned that I love chickpeas. Tasty snacks AND booze foam, what a versatile legume
Thanks for this channel, so glad I found it. Quick question. If I was making 2, would I just double up the amounts and make them both at the same time in the same shaker?
You could, Gordon! If you’re using the egg white or aquafaba, the dry shake can make the drink expand - so be sure you’re shaking tin is large enough to accommodate both drinks!
It's really good will try |
Anything else with wine|
I tried this the other night using your ratios and thought it was great! Especially with the demerara, which I hadn't tried in a sour before. That said, I noticed most versions call for 2 oz of whiskey. Are you dialing it back for balance purposes or just to have a less boozy cocktail?

How do you incorporate the egg whites if you are making a pitcher for a group?
Dude, no. Just... no. This isn't a drink that will do well sitting around in a pitcher. If you wish to serve a lot of them quickly, then throw all the ingredients except ice into a blender, and give it a quick whiz, then use a large shaker with ice to shake it in batches of two.

How do you make the shaker not blow up when you start to shake with the egg?
The Aqua fava one looks like dishwater (aka Gloria Jean’s coffee), once it settles/separates a little ... 😎👌🏼😏
I saw a product called Faba Foamer. Apparently it’s dehydrated Aquafaba. Have you heard of or had any experience with this?
I haven’t tried that - but I’m very curious! Cheers!
A cocktail bar here in Stockholm makes all their foamed drinks with burrata water instead of egg. Would love to see you try that as well.
Love a whisky sour, not the biggest fan of aquafaba personally, but definitely gets the job done!
Where did you get the glass ware for your syrup
Isn't the foam only combining the air already in the shaker with the liquid? There is no expansion of the total volume and therefor no pressure.
Whiskey Sour... my favorite! 🥃😍
Epic classic and great intro to whiskey! 👍
I don't concern myself with shells in my whiskey sours... you're going to double strain it right?
OK, I have to ask. How long have you been using chickpea water in your drinks and where did you find out about it being a good analog for egg whites?
I'm assuming it works so well because it's a protein solution...maybe you could use lima bean water? kidney bean? pinto bean?
Chili bean for the more Tex Mex experience
I first found out about it quite some time ago, but I haven’t tried it with other beans. What’s great about the chickpeas is the neutral flavor. I found it to be more neutral than even the egg white. I like your “Tex Mex experience” idea though!

everytime it came out completely foamy looking,, without that classic 1 finger foam on top??? Maybe I'm just OCD, but could I have done something wrong?? I used regular white eggs, should I have used the more expensive brown eggs?? I probably did everything right but it didn't have that foam layer on top of a clear liquor/brown liquor/look?? Maybe I'm behing too picky?? What's your expertise advice??
