EDITOR’S NOTE: Ever since we 
heard that a whiskey sour cocktail called 
the Fried Craig made an appearance at 
Prairie Dunes this year, we’ve been on 
its trail. Kristina Jarrett says the recipe 
was sent to her by the Fried Egg Golf 
Club folks with a request to use Elijah 
Craig bourbon and these ingredients: 
lemon juice, simple syrup, egg white, 
bitters, and Luxardo cherries. Kristina’s 
team, in true old-fashioned form, added 
a little bit of this and tweaked a little bit 
of that to get the right mix. Retaining 
its mystique, it can only be poured for 
the Fried Egg. Other custom cocktails, 
Calloway Kocher assures us, can be 
created for the Dunes’ golf and racquet 
tournaments. Committees and golf and 
tennis pros are consulted, and Kristina, 
she says, does a wonderful job of 
coming up with them.
