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!
