Equipment

  • 2 Mason Jar with Lid
  • 2-3 Coffee Filter Pre-rinsed

Ingredients
  

  • 6 oz Rittenhouse Rye Whiskey Can substitute with other Premium Rye Whiskey
  • 2 1/4 oz Lemon Juice Fresh Squeezed is best
  • 2 1/4 oz Simple Syrup
  • 2 3/4 oz Whole Milk Don't substitute
  • 2 slices Lemon Peel For Garnish

Instructions
 

  • In the #1 Mason Jar with Lid add all ingredients except whole milk and stir gently.
  • In the #2 Mason Jar with Lid add only milk.
  • Now slowly pour the cocktail mixture from #1 jar over milk and stir.
  • Close the lid and refrigerate for 2 hours
  • Wash the #1 Mason Jar with Lid for the next step
  • Once the milk curdles (I know it sounds gross but this is an important step) slowly pour the mixture through a pre-rinsed coffee filter into the #1 Jar.
  • Let the liquid drain slowly into Jar #1.
  • Repeat draining through the coffee filter 1-2 more times for optimum clarity.
  • Finally pour 2 1/2 ounces of your strained mixture over a large ice cube and garnish with a twist of lemon peel.
