A Ward Eight is essentially a whiskey sour with grenadine added, which means I probably should have tried the whiskey sour first, but I didn't.
1 1/2 ounce blended whiskey
1/3 ounce simple syrup
Juice of 1/2 fresh lemon
1/3 ounce grenadine
-Cocktail shaker w/cracked ice. Strain into cocktail glass.
This is another in the line of "didn't love but didn't hate" drinks. I think I would have put a little less grenadine in because it just seemed a little too syrupy, not light enough in consistency. I'm really still looking for the whiskey drink that knocks me off my feet (with deliciousness not drunkenness).
Enjoy and bottoms up!
