History
The oldest historical mention of a whisky sour prepared in the world comes from a newspaper published in Wisconsin in 1870.
In 1962, the Universidad del Cuyo published a story which cited a Peruvian newspaper called El Comercio de Iquique as indicating that Elliott Stubb created the "whisky sour" in 1872. El Comercio de Iquique was published by Modesto Molina between 1874 and 1879.
