From the Bartender

The dual citrus split - lemon for tartness, lime for brightness - is the Frisco Sour's defining quirk, setting it apart from a standard whisky sour and complementing Bénédictine's herbal sweetness with layered acidity. Use a quality blended Scotch with some body, such as Monkey Shoulder or Johnnie Walker Black, to stand up to the liqueur.
