Pickleback Cocktail

Pickleback shots originated from The Bushwick Country Club bar in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in 2006.This cocktail is based off this popular shot, but end result tastes similar to a whiskey sour, but less sweet, more savory, and tangy. If you are not a fan of whiskey you can use vodka or tequila instead.


Recommended glassware: Highball glass
