A bright, inviting riff on a whiskey sour/beer cocktail inspired by the flavor pairing of blueberry and guava 🫐🍋🥧🍹 The blend of bonded bourbon and rye results in a base with a lot of baking spice and vanilla notes that work well with the muddled blueberries. A splash of blended Sherry and some honey syrup gives a note of toffee/granola while splashes of ginger and vanilla liqueurs and a dash of ginger/allspice forward bitters boost the spice notes. Fresh lemon juice and a guava + stonefruit forward sour beer help balance the acidity in the drink while also adding complementary fruit notes Muddle a small handful of fresh blueberries in .5 oz Honey Syrup (equal parts honey and warm water) Add: 1 oz Bonded Bourbon (Old Grand-Dad, Smooth Ambler, etc) .75 oz Bonded Rye (New Riff, Rittenhouse, etc) .25 oz Lustau East India Solera Sherry (cream or Oloroso sherries could sub) .75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice Tsp Ginger Liqueur (King’s Ginger, Giffard) Tsp Vanilla Liqueur or Syrup (Licor 43 or Giffard for the former) 1 dash Bittercube Jamaican #1 Bitters (ginger and allspice notes) Shake with ice and strain into a chilled Collins glass with ice cubes. Top with 2 oz tropical or stone fruit forward sour beer (Slice’s Electric Punch with guava, apricot, passionfruit pictured). Garnish with a pick full of blueberries flanked by a lemon twist #cocktailswithcocteau
