Whiskey Sour #11
St. George Distillery's take on the essential whiskey cocktail.
You’ve been grappling with the ocean all day and your mouth is parched and salty. Rather than regrouping your senses with a cold beer, next time try a whiskey sour.
I know, not the first drink that comes to mind when thinking beach day refreshment - but rumor has it, sailors in the 1800s drank whiskey sours to fend off scurvy. The fresh lemon mixed with the simple syrup cuts through the salt with an oakiness that you can’t get from a margarita. Adding an egg-white “Boston-style” adds a smooth texture like a lemon meringue pie.
Halflight 375/Firelight 750
- 6.5oz/13oz St. George Distillery Breaking & Entering American Whiskey
- 2.5oz/5oz Lemon Juice
- 1.75oz/3.5oz Simple Syrup
- 1.75oz/3.5oz Egg White
Add all ingredients to a shaker & dry shake (no ice) for 30 seconds until frothy. Add ice to shaker & shake again for 15 seconds.
Strain into your High Camp Flask. Serve up with a couple dashes of Angostura bitters.

We've teamed up with Wyoming Whiskey to support The National Park Foundation through a virtual auction celebrating Wyoming’s majestic wide open spaces and National Parks.
WIDE OPEN SPACES AUCTION: April 16-20, 2021
The auction includes four bespoke bottles of Wyoming Whiskey’s new Wide Open Spaces Collection, art directed by Harrison Ford in collaboration with photographer Tuck Fauntleroy and artist Jamison Sellers, as well items from High Camp Flasks, REI, Columbia, Yeti, Nature Valley and more with all proceeds going to the National Park Foundation to preserve wild lands.
Inspired by the auction art director - Harrison Ford - we used our Wyoming Whiskey to make this drink as an ode to his character Han Solo's famous Star Wars ship.
