Strange Weather

The Strange Weather by Wisconsin mixologist Chad Doll took home the first-place prize at the 2009 Drambuie Den cocktail competition.

It is strange, indeed – Drambuie (a scotch whisky liqueur made with honey), gin, and cherry brandy aren’t often found in the same glass! It is genuinely delicious, though – the citrus juice and agave are a perfect complement to the herbal flavors of gin and Drambuie and the rich spice of the cherry brandy.

With our in-season orange and lemon, the drink came out just a tad sweet for our tastes. You may want to pull back just a bit on the agave if your citrus is very sweet.
