Amberfire Premium Malt Spirit Whisky Sour

The malt spirit whisky sour is a refreshing, citrus-forward cocktail with a smooth depth and a modern edge. By swapping traditional bourbon for Amberfire Premium Malt Spirit, this version brings a lighter, maltier profile with a distinctly Australian character. The result is a clean, elegant drink that offers complexity without heaviness.

Whether you're a whisky sour fan or exploring malt-based spirits for the first time, the malt spirit whisky sour is the perfect way to discover what Amberfire brings to the glass. Crafted in Wallan, Victoria, and inspired by single malt traditions, our Premium Malt Spirit delivers a rich yet smooth base ideal for cocktails.

Ingredients

• 50ml Amberfire Premium Malt Spirit

• 25ml fresh lemon juice

• 15ml sugar syrup

• Optional: 10ml egg white or aquafaba

• Garnish: Lemon wheel or cocktail cherry

Method

If using egg white or aquafaba, first dry shake all ingredients (without ice) for 10 seconds to build froth. Then add ice and shake again until well chilled. Fine strain into rocks or coupe glass.

The citrus tartness and sweetness are beautifully balanced by the clean malt foundation of Amberfire Premium Malt Spirit. Garnish with a lemon wheel for brightness or a cherry for a pop of colour and classic presentation.

Why the Malt Spirit Whisky Sour Works

The malt spirit whisky sour combines fresh lemon acidity with gentle sweetness, allowing Amberfire’s malt-forward notes to shine. Unlike heavier whisky sours, this version is smooth, vibrant, and accessible — great for cocktail newcomers and whisky fans alike.

Amberfire’s small-batch distillation process results in a spirit that integrates beautifully with citrus and sugar while adding subtle complexity. Whether served at home or at a cocktail night, this drink always hits the right note.
