Notes

Cooking Club Tip

This recipe is an elegant riff of the classic drink, which is made with 1 part Jack Daniel's, 1 part Triple Sec, 1 part sweet and sour mix, and 4 parts Sprite. To make sweet and sour mix, combine one part heavy sugar syrup (3 parts sugar to 2 parts water) with one part lemon juice.
