Tips for Perfecting Your Lynchburg Lemonade

Choosing the Right Whiskey: The traditional Lynchburg Lemonade uses Jack Daniel’s, which lends a distinct, smoky flavor. However, you can experiment with other whiskeys to suit your taste preferences. Just remember, the quality of the whiskey can significantly impact the final flavor of your cocktail.

Adjusting Sweetness and Sourness: If you like your drinks on the sweeter side, you can add a bit more simple syrup. Conversely, for a tangier twist, increase the lemon juice. Tasting as you mix will help you find the perfect balance.
