Instructions

The Highland Sunburst is a sophisticated, smoky, and slightly sweet cocktail that brings together the rich, complex world of Scotch whisky with the unique flavors of amaro and apricot. It's a drink designed for sipping slowly and savoring every nuanced note. This concoction is perfect for those who appreciate the depth of Scotch and seek a modern twist on classic cocktails. Ingredients: - 1 oz Blended Scotch Whisky - 1 oz Islay Scotch Whisky - 3/4 oz Amaro - 1/2 oz Apricot Liqueur - 2 dashes of Orange Bitters - Orange twist, for garnish Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine the blended Scotch, Islay Scotch, amaro, apricot liqueur, and orange bitters. 2. Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir well until the outside of the glass feels cold, usually about 30 seconds. This method allows the flavors to meld while achieving a smooth, chilled consistency without diluting the cocktail too much. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. The choice of glass highlights the elegance and richness of the cocktail, providing an enhanced drinking experience. 4. Garnish with an orange twist, expressing the oils over the drink and placing it into the glass to add a hint of citrus aroma that complements the smokiness and depth of the Scotch. The Highland Sunburst is a testament to the art of mixology, embodying innovation while respecting the heritage of its components. It's a cocktail that tells a story in every sip, perfect for those special moments when you want to indulge in a drink that's truly out of the ordinary.
