About
This cocktail appears in the 1922 edition of Harry McElhone’s ABC of Mixing Cocktails. A split of blended Scotch and Irish whiskey form a smooth, layered base, while lemon juice and orgeat bring brightness and subtle nuttiness. It’s a well-balanced drink that manages to be both lively and approachable.Cheers y’all!
