Rob Roy (Perfect)

Ingredients

  • 60 ml Scotch e.g. Johnnie Walker, Monkey Shoulder
  • 15 ml Sweet vermouth e.g. Carpano Antica, Cocchi di Torino
  • 15 ml Dry vermouth e.g. Noilly Prat, Dolin Dry
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters
  • Garnish Lemon twist

Preparation

  1. Stir all ingredients with ice.
  2. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. Don't know how? Pour the drink through a strainer (or the built-in strainer on your shaker) to catch the ice and any solids.
  3. Garnish with lemon twist. Use a peeler or knife to cut a wide strip, avoiding the white pith. Twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it in.

Origin Story

The Rob Roy Perfect is a modern twist on the classic Rob Roy, incorporating both sweet and dry vermouths. It reflects the trend of balancing flavors in cocktails for a more nuanced experience.
