Matt's attempt to entertain his house guests went better than expected. However, he still has a lot left to learn. In this episode of the "Elevating Your Home Bar" series, Anthony and Troy take Matt to school and help him upgrade his cocktail game. They walk him through their cocktails, an elevated Whiskey Sour and The Bitter Handshake.
Stay tuned for the next episode of this series where we learn about and test batched cocktails!

*Elevated Whiskey Sour*
2 oz bourbon

Add four drops of bitters in a dotted line over the top of the drink, and slide a toothpick across to form the shape of an elegant arrow.
