Blinker

Cocktail Description

The Blinker delivers a striking balance of whiskey warmth and bright citrus tartness that awakens your palate from the first sip.

This sophisticated twist on the classic whiskey sour combines the caramel and vanilla notes of Buffalo Trace bourbon with the tart punch of fresh pink grapefruit juice, all rounded out by the subtle pomegranate sweetness of real grenadine. Its ruby-red hue makes it as beautiful to look at as it is delicious to drink. Perfect for spring brunches or as an aperitif before dinner, this cocktail works wonderfully with grilled seafood, Mediterranean dishes, or anything featuring fresh herbs. The Blinker is surprisingly simple to prepare despite its complex flavor profile—just shake, strain, and garnish with a lemon twist to release those essential oils that complement the grapefruit's brightness.
