Tips:

To make the whiskey sour balls extra boozy, use a high-proof whiskey. Knob Creek, Wild Turkey, and Evan Williams all make excellent choices.
If you don't have any lemon juice on hand, you can use lime juice instead. However, the flavor of the whiskey sour balls will be slightly different.
Be sure to chill the whiskey sour mixture thoroughly before adding it to the melted chocolate. This will help the balls to set up properly.
If you want to decorate the whiskey sour balls, you can drizzle them with melted chocolate, sprinkle them with candy sprinkles, or roll them in chopped nuts.

Conclusion:

Whiskey sour balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up leftover whiskey. So next time you're looking for a sweet and boozy treat, give these whiskey sour balls a try.
