The Home Fires is an autumn cocktail that was created by author Jassy Davis and was first published in her book Winter Warmers: 60 Cosy Cocktails for Autumn & Winter. It's a unique variation of the classic Whiskey Sour that is made with whiskey, almond, citrus, and sherry, the combination of which was inspired by the author's sister's favorite spirits and the warmth of a fire in the wintertime.
Add whiskey, amaretto liqueur, lemon juice, sherry, Scotch, and bitters to a shaker.
Fill shaker with cubed ice.
Shake for 30-45 seconds.
Using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer, strain into a coupe glass.
Garnish with cherry.
