Taste the Big Apple without leaving home with this whiskey and lemon cocktail. The New York Cocktail is a thick, sweet drink that goes well with fruit and chocolate desserts. Premium Canadian whiskey is the perfect, light blended whiskey for this drink as it's not too sweet, nor too robust.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz blended whiskey
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 1 tsp superfine sugar
  • 1/2 tsp grenadine
  • lemon twist for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.
  2. Shake well.
  3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
  4. Garnish with the lemon twist.
