Description

In this cocktail, gin is responsible for the 'body,' while island whisky brings the 'soul' with its powerful peaty bouquet. Despite the difference in quantity, their roles are equal; both should be of the highest quality, and the smokier the whisky, the better.

Ingredients

Scottish blended whisky - 0 fl oz
Gin - 2 fl oz
Lime Syrup - 0 fl oz
Citrus Zest Mix - to taste
Rosemary - 1 stalk
