    The Maple Leaf Whisky Sour

    Canadian rye whisky, maple syrup, lemon, egg white & Angostura

    Canada's first World Cup — a nation's proudest moment

    The Story

    For the first time in history, Canada will host World Cup matches in 2026. Canadian rye whisky is one of the nation's oldest spirits — distilled since the 1800s — and paired with the country's most iconic ingredient, maple syrup, it creates a whisky sour that's distinctly Canadian: smooth, sweet, and stronger than you'd expect, just like the Canadian men's national team on their historic run.
