2-in-1 International Recipe Card Collection: Scotch Shoot & Scotch Smash (1977)

Happy National Scotch Day!

In honor of the holiday I have prepared two different cocktails for you.

Think of the Scotch Smash as a Mint Julep-Lite. This had less sugar, less mint, and less booze than the last julep I made:

It was good.
I’d make it again if I find myself with some mint.

NEXT!

That meat blob is Smoked Guinea Pate

The sherry really took over this drink. And the two juices were present in such little amounts that they made no difference.

MEH.

However! Put this drink on ice with twice as much citrus, and I didn’t hate it.

I think I am gonna go take a nap. I’m tired. Maybe because I made that second drink this morning.

Catch yinz later this week.

  • I love your glassware collection. I'm also kind of curious about the pie on the first card. The first drink looks very refreshing as does the doctored second. I'm normally a neat or rocks gal when it comes to Scotch, but you're giving me ideas. :)
