A fresh take on an old favorite
Get your cocktail shaker out and keep the ice handy. This is a good one! The combination of whiskey and lemon juice sweetened by Birch is so delightful.
This is a mouth puckering balance of sweet and sour that will thrill on a warm evening as a summer refresher or during the holidays by adding a touch of cinnamon. No matter the time of year, you will want to share this with friends.
To sweeten this cocktail, there are several options to control the level of sweetness according to your taste. For a tarter, less sweet version, use Gold Birch Syrup which adds flavor and light sweetness. For a sweeter cocktail (totally our preference!) use Birch for Breakfast -- sounds a little cheeky doesn't it? Well, it must be 5 o'clock somewhere!
