Did you know that a Vodka Sour existed 300 years ago? Over the centuries, this cocktail evolved into what we would consider modern sours today.
There are many variations on sours, including those made with vodka. This version has more spice and earthy tones than the regular ones. This cocktail also resembles the Vodka Gimlet, another vodka sour type. The difference is lime juice and bitters.
