Wheyward Spirit’s sustainability efforts don’t stop with the spirit. The Waste Not Sour reflects our values of upcycling and reducing food waste whenever possible by using aquafaba in place of egg whites, and zesting lemon for garnish before using the fresh juice. The result is a creamy, foamy, and sustainable cocktail so you can feel good about what’s in your glass down to the last drop.
2 oz Wheyward Spirit
¾ oz Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
½ oz Simple Syrup
½ oz Aquafaba (liquid strained from a can of chickpeas/garbanzo beans) OR 1 egg white
In a cocktail shaker add all ingredients and shake vigorously until thickened. Then add ice and to the shaker and SHAKE HARD again until cold and foamy. Strain into a coupe glass and top with Angostura Bitters and lemon zest.

This cocktail is not just a drink; it’s a homage to Caravaggio’s "Basket of Fruit”. Each sip is like a brushstroke, lending the rich, dark sweetness of figs with the tartness of pomegranate, all grounded by Wheyskey’s warmth. The egg white adds a smooth, painterly texture, reminiscent of the way light plays across Caravaggio’s fruits.
