Introducing the Grapefruit Thyme Whiskey Sour, a sophisticated cocktail that beautifully marries the unique flavors of its star ingredients. The tart, bright punch of grapefruit juice is mellowed by the smooth, rich warmth of whiskey, while the thyme adds a subtle, herbaceous note that lingers pleasantly on the palate. It's a refreshing, aromatic libation that can transport you to a cozy, rustic cabin with just one sip. Originating from the classic whiskey sour, this cocktail has an added twist with the citrus and herbal notes.
