If you're looking for a cocktail that strikes the perfect balance between sour and a little bit sweet, with a fresh taste, the Amaretto Sour is an excellent choice. This cocktail has a high rating of 4.77 out of 5, suggesting it is a beloved favorite among many cocktail enthusiasts. The Amaretto Sour is known for its delightful combination of the rich, sweet flavor of amaretto, enhanced by the tartness of fresh lemon juice. The egg white adds a silky texture, while a dash of Angostura bitters lends depth and complexity, creating a well-rounded and refreshing drink that's visually appealing and perfect for any occasion.

Another great option is the Bourbon Sour, which is also highly rated at 4.6 out of 5. It's a classic choice that delivers a robust and zesty flavor profile. The oak and vanilla notes of bourbon are beautifully balanced by the fresh acidity of lemon juice and a slight touch of sugar. This tangy and sweet combination offers a refreshing and bold taste that is hard to resist. Garnished with a slice of orange and a cherry, it adds an aromatic and fruity elegance to the drink, making it visually appealing and a delight to the palate.

For a twist on the classic, consider the Bourbon Amaretto Sour, rated 3.89 out of 5. This cocktail mixes the strong, warming notes of bourbon with the sweet, almond-like flavor of amaretto, balanced by the tang of fresh lemon juice and the sweetness of sugar syrup. The result is a robust yet smooth drink with a perfect balance of contrasting flavors.
