🥃 Heard it was #WorldWhiskeyDay so I figured I’d break open some of the good stuff with @whistlepigwhiskey - what’s everyone sipping on tonight?
#WhiskeyWednesday . Whats everyone drinking tonight?
Did you hear? Its #WorldCocktailDay! . I had an opportunity to receive a bottle of a unique California Brandy by @jeffreymbell (@pdthongkong)and @thomaspastuszak(@thenomadhotel) - two very well known names in the cocktail/wine/spirits industry. Bertoux Brandy (@bertouxbrandy) is meant to be as sippable as it is perfect for any cocktail - So I figured, why not try a riff on a classic Brandy cocktail - The Sidecar! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• SCOTMAN SIDECAR •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ▶︎ 1½ oz @bertouxbrandy Brandy ▶︎ ¾ oz @grangala Orange Liqueur ▶︎ ½ oz Fresh Lemon Juice ▶︎ ¼ oz Demerara Simple ▶︎ 4 drops Spruce/Birch @crudebitters ▶︎ Twist of Lemon ▶︎ ¼ oz @laphroaig 10 year (or any Islay Scotch) •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Instructions: Combine ingredients except lemon twist and Scotch in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake, double strain, pour into a chilled coupe. Spray the top with a healthy dose of a peaty scotch (I used Laphroig 10) using an atomizer - alternatively, feel free to rinse the glass instead. Finish by expressing a lemon twist. Serve and enjoy.
