Scotch Haze

I have never been a big Scotch drinker, although Icertainly appreciate the complexity of flavors. I feel that it works wonderfully as a cocktail ingredient, adding asmokiness and depth that many traditional cocktails lack.
This following recipe is for 1 cocktail. 

Ingredients

  • 2 oz high-quality Scotch
  • ¾ oz Sweet Vermouth
  • ¾ oz Dry Vermouth
  • 1 Tbsp Maraschino cherry juice
  • 1 oz Ginger beer
  • 1 Maraschino cherry (as garnish)

Instructions 

  • Combine the Scotch, Sweet Vermouth, Dry Vermouth, and Maraschino cherry juice in a shaker tin with ice.
  • Shake for 10 seconds, or until the ingredients are fully chilled.
  • Strain the cocktail into a Martini glass.
  • Top with chilled Ginger Beer, and garnish with the Maraschino cherry.

Notes

You can add more ginger beer if you want to make this drink a bit less powerful.
