A Whiskey Ditch is just whiskey and water. Montana legend says people used to use slushy snow from the edge of a ditch. I don’t know how sanitary that is, but I like using fresh snow.
It’s pretty neat how insanely fast the snow melts when you add the whiskey (bourbon for me tonight). Like cotton candy in water.
Should be no sediment in the drink - if there is then your snow isn’t clean enough. And never use lemon snow!
I’m very excited for summer, but every season has something nice that the others don’t. Though I suppose I could use a shaved ice machine or something…
Anyone have high class bourbon recommendations? Best I’ve had so far is Rabbit Hole Dareringer, any better?
Thus far the only bourbon I’ve ever tried is one local to my town - I really like it but will need to experiment someday
How watered down was the final product
It ends up being close to a 1 to 1 ratio - probably depends a lot on the snow’s density and what not
Oh no!

just don’t use the yellow snow and you’ll be fine
Fresh snow only or there’ll be dirt in the bottom of your glass
People telling me to stay clear of the elusive yellow snow, I know you all want to keep the special whiskey sour recipe a secret. But I know and you cannot keep me away from it.
