Rob Roy with Mezcal. Use good, smokey one. No worms! Use Vya for vermouth and it's totally new world.

History

Rob Roy was Scotts hero. Benito Juarez was from Oaxaca, Mezcal's hometown. Wikipedia:He resisted the French occupation, overthrew the Empire, restored the Republic, and used liberal efforts to modernize the country. Has "hero" written all over him.

  • I made with Ilegal Joven - not as smokey as some of my other preferred mezcals. I had some coffee infused Antica Formula - so used that. I also stirred with one large cube instead of shaking. It's boozy...but good.

Instructions

Stir, strain, flame orange peel over top, add a dash of Christmas bitters to peel and drop in drink.

The Oban has always smelled like buttered fruitcake to me, and this was a way to create a flavor profile like the bitters, which smell like rum, plums, and clove.

  • good summer drink, no simple syrup — ★★★★★
  • Easy-drinking. A step up from the lowly screwdriver.

Dan commented on 9/27/2014:

Craig E notes that the recipe contains no lime, so perhaps a lemon (or orange?) shell would work, unless it is too big for the glass.

Indeed, that's what the recipe (as it appears in Grog Log and Total Tiki) calls for: spent orange and lemon shells.

  • 5/22/23: 1.5 oz Cocchi, 1.5 oz Dry Sack, 2 dashes Angostura, lemon peel. Just okay. Don't think I'll make this one again. I'd rather have either a glass of vermouth or a traditional spirit and vermouth cocktail.
  • Nice option for something low in alcohol.
  • Could sub for white wine.
  • Made with manzanilla and Punt e Mes. Not bad, but not a great showcase for either ingredient. Bitters on the nose, Punt on the sip, sherry dryness on the swallow. Would probably work better with an amontillado and a less domi
