The traditional garnish is half an orange slice and a maraschino cherry.

A variant of the whiskey sour is the Ward 8, which often is based with bourbon or rye whiskey, and includes both lemon and orange juices, and grenadine syrup as the sweetener. The egg white sometimes employed in other whiskey sours is generally not included in this variation.
