Rob Roy

The Rob Roy is basically a Manhattan with Scotch whiskey instead of bourbon. It has the same sweet vermouth, giving it a reddish color, and the flavor is not tremendously different.

Celebrate the Scottish folk hero with the classic whisky-based Rob Roy cocktail. This recipe is similar to the beloved Manhattan, but uses Scotch instead of rye whiskey and Angostura bitters instead of aromatic bitters. The difference is delicious—try it for yourself.

Scotch may not be your usual drink, but stir it with some sweet red vermouth and a dash of bitters, and you may just find you like it.
