Jamming good Cocktail

Plum Jam Whiskey Sour
You may not have thought about using jam as a cocktail ingredient before but trust me you should try!
Ingredients:
- 2 oz whiskey
- 1 tablespoon plum jam (Vanilla kissed plum jam is the best)
- 1 oz fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 oz simple syrup (optional, depending on your sweetness preference)
- Ice
- Lemon slice or plum slice, for garnish
Instructions:
-
Mix the Jam: In a cocktail shaker, add the tablespoon of plum jam and 1 oz of fresh lemon juice. Stir well to combine the jam and juice.
-
Add Whiskey: Pour in the whiskey and add the simple syrup if you want a sweeter cocktail.
-
Shake It Up: Add a handful of ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 20-30 seconds. This helps mix the jam smoothly into the drink and chills it nicely.
-
Strain & Serve: Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice (or a chilled glass if you prefer it straight up).
-
Garnish: Garnish with a lemon slice or a fresh plum slice for an extra touch of flavour and elegance.
Cheers!
