Yum! I am a whiskey/bourbon girl all the way. This sounds like the perfect mix of down-home and foo-foo. ;)
I'm usually not a hard liquor drinker, but I would drink that... Oh, yea, I'd drink that!!! :)
I love whiskey sours, and this looks like a great one! And, is that an ice sphere in the glass? It also looks great.
I'll be over soon! Wouldn't that be fun to hang out with a few of these and talk food and drink! :)
