Cutwater Whiskey Sour

Cutwater Whiskey Sour is a ready-to-drink cocktail that captures the timeless flavor of one of the most popular whiskey classics. Made with genuine bourbon whiskey, real citrus, and a carefully measured sweetness, this cocktail is designed for convenience without compromising taste. Smooth, balanced, and refreshing, it is crafted to bring the cocktail bar experience straight to your home or gathering.

This cocktail begins with Cutwaters award-winning bourbon as its base. Known for notes of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, the bourbon provides a rich foundation. To that, natural lemon flavor is added to replicate the sharp yet refreshing citrus bite that defines a traditional whiskey sour. A touch of sweetness rounds out the flavor, creating a drink that is bold yet approachable.

Each can is crafted with precision to ensure consistency. At 7 percent ABV, Cutwater Whiskey Sour carries the strength of a real cocktail but is still easy to sip and enjoy. Packaged in portable 12-ounce cans, it is sold in four-packs that make sharing simple.

Flavor Profile

On the nose, you will find fresh lemon zest combined with hints of vanilla and oak. The first sip delivers bright citrus flavors with just the right level of tartness. The bourbon provides depth with warm caramel notes, light spice, and a smooth backbone. As the flavors unfold, the sweetness balances the citrus, leaving a pleasant finish that lingers with both whiskey warmth and a refreshing touch of fruit.

Many drinkers describe the overall taste as a true reflection of a handmade whiskey sour. It feels lively and refreshing, while the whiskey base keeps it grounded in rich, full-bodied character.

Serving Suggestions

Cutwater Whiskey Sour is crafted to be enjoyed directly from the can or poured into a glass over ice. For a more classic presentation, garnish with a lemon wheel or a maraschino cherry. This simple touch adds visual appeal and enhances the traditional whiskey sour experience.

The cocktail pairs beautifully with a variety of foods. Its citrus brightness cuts through fried or savory dishes, while the whiskey depth complements smoky meats, BBQ, and cheeses. It also works wonderfully alongside desserts such as vanilla cake or caramel pudding.
