Penicillin non-alcoholic cocktail alcohol-free mocktail

The Cure

Aromatic bitters · Bold · Ginger · Kentucky 74 · Lemon · low calorie · Modern · non-alcoholic whiskey · Tart · Whiskey

Created by Sam Ross in the early 2000s, the original Penicillin cocktail became a modern classic thanks to its brilliant mix of Scotch, lemon, honey, and ginger.

Our non-alcoholic cocktail, The Cure—basically a ginger whiskey sour—delivers that same comforting profile, without any alcohol. Spiritless Kentucky 74 provides an oak-forward backbone, ginger syrup adds warmth and balancing sweetness, fresh lemon juice keeps things bright, and a few dashes of our Aromatic bitters add the bite and depth that make this a truly satisfying non-alcoholic cocktail—not just another sweet “mocktail.”

This recipe was perfected using Spiritless Kentucky 74, but feel free to use your favorite alcoholic or non-alcoholic whiskey instead.
