Rob Roy
A twist on Manhattan
Prep time:
Born in New York in 1894 and named after a Scottish outlaw. Swapping rye for Scotch sounds minor and turns the whole drink around.
Ingredients
- 60 ml blended Scotch whisky
- 30 ml sweet vermouth
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters
- A maraschino cherry
Preparation
- Chill the coupe while you make the drink.
- Add the Scotch, vermouth and bitters to a mixing glass with ice.
- Stir for twenty seconds. Never shake: this is all spirits, and shaking clouds it.
- Strain into the chilled coupe.
- Drop the cherry in.
