The Fig & Brown Sugar Whiskey Sour takes a familiar sour format and gives it a deeper seasonal center. Fig syrup adds dark fruit, brown sugar gives it a molasses-like warmth, and lemon keeps the drink lifted. It is a richer sour, but not a heavy one, which makes it especially useful for fall and winter cocktail menus.
