This split-base whiskey cocktail balances the caramel sweetness of bourbon against rye's spicier edge, with orgeat lending a subtle almond richness that softens the spirit's heat. The double sweetener of orgeat and simple syrup gives the drink a fuller body than a standard sour, while fresh lemon cuts through cleanly to keep it from becoming cloying. The result is a rounded, approachable whiskey drink with a nutty undertone and bright citrus finish.
