If you're seeking a whiskey-based cocktail with a notable citrus flavor, there are several excellent choices from our list that fit your criteria:

  1. Winter Whisky Sour (Rated 4.8/5) - This cocktail is a seasonal twist on the classic Whisky Sour, incorporating orange and lemon juice, which offers a refreshing yet cozy combination of sweet and tart flavors. The bourbon provides a rich, warming base, making it perfect for colder months or festive occasions.

  2. Whiskey Collins (Rated 4.5/5) - A delightful blend of bourbon with the sharp zest of lemon juice, this cocktail is sweetened with sugar syrup and balanced with Angostura Bitters, then topped with soda water for a sparkling finish. It's an invigorating option, well-suited for a warm afternoon or as an elegant evening drink.

  3. Whiskey Sour (Rated 4.2/5) - A staple in the cocktail world, this drink balances the boldness of bourbon with the tartness of lemon juice and the sweetness of sugar syrup. The inclusion of egg white adds a silky texture, making the overall experience rich and smooth.

  4. Whiskey Daisy (Rated 3.93/5) - Featuring whiskey combined with the zesty tang of lemon juice and the sweetness of orange liqueur and sugar syrup, the Whiskey Daisy offers a harmonious blend of flavors. It's a well-balanced, spirited drink that's both refreshing and robust.

  5. Whisky Stone Sour (Rated 3.8/5) - Perfect for those who enjoy a fruity note in their sour cocktails, this drink blends whiskey with orange juice and a sour mix. The result is a refreshing taste that's both bold and inviting, often garnished with a maraschino cherry.

Given these options, the Winter Whisky Sour stands out for its high rating and well-rounded blend of citrus notes with bourbon's complexity, making it an excellent choice to match your preference for a whiskey-based, citrus-flavored cocktail.
