Kick back this summer with this unique twist on a New York whiskey sour, curated by Atlanta bartender Mara Mullen. Mullen taps into Chamblee’s Distillery of Modern Art (DoMA) for their corn whiskey and peach amaro for this Southern take on a classic favorite. “It’s probably one of my favorite liqueurs on my back bar,” says Mullen. “I grew up on a farm in South Georgia, and the peaches are always so juicy that the skins almost come off, and it’s very much what [this] reminds me of.”
