Sour mix is a combination of sugar, water, lemons, and limes. One homemade batch can give you a whole party’s worth of margaritas, whiskey sours, or daiquiris without much effort. A bottle of sour mix may call you from the store shelf with a siren song of good times and an easy-pour spout.
What can I use if I don’t have sour mix?
