Wrapping up the weekend with a whiskey sour, a variation that came through my news feed, with orange juice (I have Tangelos, fantastic tangy juice) and absinthe (used Lucid)

I made this with scotch, as I have no rye, and it definitely needed 2x the lemon. Feeling more indulgent about the egg white than the Scotch! I think this would work with Angel’s Envy bourbon very well, better than the Scotch and maybe better than rye but alas, as I have already mentioned I am waiting to buy anything.
