It is time that you try out Whiskey cocktails if you have had enough of all those Rums and Vodkas. Whiskey, though good in consuming neat, is a great mixer in many cocktails.
These Whiskey cocktails are not so fruity or punchy like other Vodka and Rum cocktails, but they add a new dimension to the cocktail world through their unique taste and flavors.
Let us see some of the famous cocktails that you can make with Whiskey.
One thing to note is that you can use any brand of Whiskey unless specified like JD or Jim Beam and so on. There are plenty of underrated brands that go well with cocktails, like the Chestnut Farms Bourbon.
