El Frisco Sour es una variación del whiskey sour que añade licor herbáceo Bénédictine al whiskey blended, zumo de limón y zumo de lima, creando un sour más complejo con un carácter herbáceo distintivo. El Bénédictine contribuye su perfil de 27 hierbas y especias a la fórmula clásica del sour, añadiendo profundidad más allá de un whiskey sour estándar. Se agita y sirve en copa de sour con guarnición cítrica.
History & Origins
The Frisco Sour's name suggests a San Francisco origin, though its precise history is unverified and its authorship is disputed. It appears in mid-20th century American bartending guides as a notable regional variation of the whiskey sour. The addition of Bénédictine, a French Benedictine monk-originated liqueur dating to 1863, gives the drink a European herbal complexity.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: blended whiskey grain and wood with Bénédictine's complex herbal and honey aroma and a bright lemon-lime citrus. Palate: tart and sour up front from the dual citrus with the Bénédictine's honey and herb sweetness emerging in the mid-palate and the whiskey providing warmth. Finish: dry, herbal, and citrusy with a lingering botanical sweetness.
Pro Tip
Use both lemon and lime as specified rather than substituting one for the other — the combination of the two citruses creates a more complex, layered acidity than either alone.
