Whisky Mac Toddy | Cocktail Party

Whisky Mac Toddy

The Whisky Mac Toddy is just a Whisky Mac topped with hot water – but something magical happens in this addition, transforming it into something soft, gentle, and warming.

Scotch whisky and ginger wine are a solid pair, if a bit strongly-flavored; when those flavors are heated and lengthened, subtle new flavor compounds emerge. The boggy smoke and the sharp ginger flavors recede, allowing fruit and wood flavors to take center stage.

Ingredients

Instructions

Pre-heat a heatproof glass or mug by pouring in near-boiling water, swirling around a bit, and dumping out. Add the spirits to the glass, and top with 3.5 ounces (or about 100 mL) of hot water. No garnish is required, but a slice of candied ginger wouldn’t be unwelcome.

This app ROCKS!!!

I've used a number of mix drink apps, and this one is by FAR the BEST! I've made a couple dozen drinks so far, and they're delicious. It suits my quality wants while (more importantly) suiting my inherent laziness. You put in what you have on hand, and it automatically lists all the drinks you can make! There's info on all the ingredients, which is pretty neat to learn some backstory. What I truly like is I can click an ingredient and it shows how many more drinks I can make. It's pretty fun picking up a new item and seeing 8 new drinks to try. There's a setting on the iPad that locks the app on so people can switch on the mixing app without letting anyone out of it, so I leave it by the bar and people can use it without worry of people snooping around. ;) The combination of all the drinks and this app that makes searching for, and making a drink, easy peezy lemon squeezey, and gives a real feeling of sophistication.
