John Philip Sour
- Try this creamy, vanilla-flavoured version of a whisky sour and you may never go back.
- This cocktail recipe starts with a simple whisky sour and uses ingenuity to enhance it into something bigger — sort of like how our founder, John Philip Wiser, grew his humble distillery into the maker of a great Canadian whisky sold all over the world.
- The first recorded mention of a whisky sour goes back to the 1860s, roughly about the time when J.P.W. entered the game. Coincidence?

Variations & tips
- Simple syrup is available to purchase at some liquor stores, gourmet food stores and cocktail supply stores (search online).
- But it’s easy to make your own simple syrup: Add equal parts (say, ¼ cup each) white sugar and water to a saucepan, heat gently (simmer, don’t boil) and stir until sugar is dissolved. Set aside and let it cool before using.
- Remember to exclude the ice when shaking in steps #1-2 above to ensure that the egg white whips into an attractive, creamy froth. (Bartenders call this technique a “dry shake.”)
