Whiskey Smash
The whiskey smash is a very old, very classic cocktail. Falling somewhere between a julep and a sour, the smash differs from the julep with its addition of fruit and from a sour with its preference for whole fruit rather than juice. This is a highly modifiable cocktail- try swapping other herbs for mint, other acidic fruits for lemon, or flavored syrups for the simple. It is also perfect for home bartenders as it doesn’t require fancy shaking- just muddle, pour, and serve.
