A wonderfully smooth balance of sour, herbal, sweet, and bitter notes, it's very easy to fall in love with the Paper Plane, named after the M.I.A. song that was released the summer this drink was created. Shake all ingredients with ice and fine strain into a chilled glass.
Like the Paper Plane, this is an equal parts cocktail and a riff of the The Last Word. Whisky replaces the gin, and the citrus fruit is switched from lime to lemon. Shake all ingredients with ice and fine strain into a chilled glass—garnish with a twist of lemon.
A whisky sour with honey richness, subtle smoke and enlivening ginger spice. Shake the first 3 ingredients with ice and strain into an ice-filled glass. Top with Islay whisky and garnish with candied ginger.
Smoky island malts tamed by the Christmas pudding flavours of Pedro Ximénez with notes of anise. Chill and coat a glass with the pastis and water. Stir other ingredients separately then strain into chilled, pastis-coated glass.
