Bloodbath Bourbon Sour Cocktail Recipe

Bloodbath Bourbon Sour Cocktail Recipe
The Bloodbath Bourbon Sour is a bold, spooky twist on the classic sour—perfect for Halloween or any time you want a cocktail that makes a statement. Featuring smooth bourbon, fresh citrus, and a frothy top (thanks to egg white or aquafaba), it delivers a deep red hue and hauntingly good flavor with every sip.
