Instructions

The Velvet Swing is a sophisticated and modern twist on the classic Rusty Nail, which was a favorite of Frank Sinatra. This reinvention maintains the sultry combination of Scotch and Drambuie, while introducing the velvety notes of fig and a hint of citrus to brighten the palate. Garnished with a twist of orange and a sprig of fresh thyme, this drink exudes an air of contemporary elegance. Ingredients: - 2 oz Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 1/2 oz Drambuie - 1/2 oz Fig-infused simple syrup* - 1/4 oz Fresh lemon juice - 2 dashes Orange bitters - Orange twist, for garnish - Fresh thyme sprig, for garnish Instructions: 1. Fill a mixing glass with ice to chill. 2. Pour the Scotch, Drambuie, fig-infused simple syrup, lemon juice, and orange bitters into the mixing glass. 3. Stir the mixture gently for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled. 4. Strain the cocktail into a rocks glass over a large ice cube. 5. Express the oils of an orange twist over the glass and place into the drink. 6. Garnish with a fresh sprig of thyme. *Fig-infused simple syrup: - 1 cup Water - 1 cup Granulated sugar - 6 dried figs, chopped To make the fig-infused simple syrup, combine water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Add chopped dried figs and let the mixture simmer gently for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool. Strain out fig pieces and store the syrup in the refrigerator. Serving Glass: Serve the Velvet Swing in a rocks glass to showcase its deep and alluring color, allowing the aroma of the herbs and citrus to envelop the senses with each sip.
