Grumpy Dingo Radio Blackberry Whiskey Sour

Legend has it that one day, long ago, a clumsy bartender was cleaning up his workspace when he tripped, fell and accidentally knocked over a bottle of whiskey, a bottle of blackberry brandy and a bowl of sugar. As he lay face down on the floor, the ingredients pooled around his mouth and a cocktail was born. Lucky for us, today's Blackberry Whiskey Sour isn't made quite so violently, but have some Band-Aids ready, just in case.

Ingredients

2 parts Whiskey

1 part Blackberry Brandy

1 part lemon juice

1 part simple syrup
