Cocktail Description
A crimson-hued twist on the classic whiskey sour that balances the robust character of Kentucky bourbon with bright citrus and the luscious sweetness of pomegranate.
The Millionaire delivers a velvety texture from the egg white froth that carries notes of caramel and vanilla from the Buffalo Trace bourbon, while the triple sec adds subtle orange complexity that plays beautifully against the tart lemon juice. The grenadine provides not just its signature ruby color but also a fruity depth that rounds out the drink without making it cloying. Perfect for sophisticated cocktail hours or as an aperitif before a special dinner, this cocktail strikes the right balance between impressive and approachable—requiring just a good shake with ice and fine straining into a chilled coupe. It's remarkably versatile with food, complementing everything from barbecued pork to spicy Cajun dishes, though it particularly shines alongside charcuterie boards featuring smoky meats and sharp cheeses.
