This is a new version of an older style cocktail, a Whiskey Sour. Let me first express my love for all things Whiskey. I can not think of one drink that was made with Whiskey that I did not like. Having said that, this is not really made with Whiskey. It is made with Evan Williams Honey Reserve, Kentucky Liqueur. Thus the name.
I have wanted to try this liquor for a while, but honestly, I was afraid that it would be too sweet and I would have wasted the money. But today is a new day. When I tasted it, straight up, it was sweeter than I expected, however, it was delicious and not to sweet to use as a mixer. The Honey Reserve has a definite honey undertone and is a nice compliment to the citrus in this drink.
Ice
4 Tablespoons of Evan Williams Honey Reserve Kentucky Liqueur
2 Tablespoons of Triple Sec
1 Tablespoon of fresh Lime Juice
1 Tablespoon of fresh Lemon Juice
Seltzer Water
Crushed Ice
Place ice in, Honey Reserve Kentucky Liqueur, Triple Sec, and juices in a shaker; shake well. Strain into a 12 ounce glass filled with crushed ice. Top with seltzer water.
Enjoy!

I am going to try the Kentucky Sour on a hot Portland day. I sounds refreshing. Amy
