Whiskey Drinks Recipes

This classic East Coast cocktail--slightly, but not overpoweringly, sweet--is shaken, not stirred.

My grandfather brought this recipe over from Sweden in 1921. We still use it today. God Jul.

A classic drink. Stir, most Manhattan drinkers like it that way. Shake it only when asked to do so. May be served up or on the rocks.

A quick, inexpensive, good tasting, inhibitor breaking, outdoor party making drink for adults. Best if made with cheap beer and whiskey. Give your car keys to a responsible sober adult BEFORE drinking.

Fresh hot coffee gets a little added pep with the addition of Irish whiskey and Irish cream.

This classic cocktail with 7UP and your favorite whiskey never goes out of style.

Slushy, lemony and deceptively strong, this refreshing whiskey cocktail is great for a summer evening.

Lemon-lime soda is spiked with whiskey, triple sec and a dash of sweet and sour mix. This was given to me by my aunt, it's divine!

One of my favorites! Similar to a Long Island, but with Jack Daniel's!

The name speaks for itself! The perfect drink after a hard day, or for get-togethers.

I came up with this mix by accident when my bar tender misinterpreted me asking for a Jack and Pineapple juice by giving me a Jack and apple juice. It has since become a bar room staple.

One of the great classic cocktails, this one's made the old fashioned way -- with rye whiskey.

My best friend who just happens to be Irish made this drink for me one cold night in Chicago and since then, I have been hooked! Warning: it is very potent, just one of these will warm you up and basically make you good for nothing afterwards - what a treat! It is super to drink at night if you have a sore throat. My friend said this is what the Irish drink if they don't feel good but don't wait until you have a cold to try this recipe!

Strawberries and fresh basil are smashed together until fragrant in this bourbon-based cocktail perfect for summer.

A great alternative if you don't have brandy available!

The whiskey varies by state - Kentucky uses bourbon, Georgia favors peach brandy and in next door Maryland it is rye. Take your choice.

A drink recipe that my mom and I made up one St. Patrick's day because we were bored.

Day drinking is the best drinking, and if that day happens to be a very sunny, hot day, there's no better cocktail to enjoy than a classic whiskey sour. I'm very excited to show you my favorite formula for this incredibly refreshing, super simple, absolutely delicious drink. Garnish with a slice of blood orange and a Luxardo cherry.

This is a variation on the classic Manhattan that I developed because I also like the Old Fashioned cocktail. You will need a cocktail shaker.

Yummy whiskey sour recipe that goes down so easy! Look out because it'll hit you before you know it!

There's a lot to love about this classic whiskey and bitters beverage. The official drink of New Orleans, the Sazerac is every bit as aromatic and flavorful as most anything else from down on the bayou.

I have recently found a love for mixology and experimenting with new and wild alcohol flavors. Substitute diet soda if desired.

This is how my grandad makes his cups of tea. He's in his seventies now and drinks whisky like he'll never get hold of it again. This drink is very relaxing and a great way to sedate family members and friends.

I'm not a fan of store-bought sour mix, so I came up with my own version.
