Whisky Cocktail Recipe | Naked Grouse Raspberry Sour
I’m not a big drinker, let’s start by saying that. However, if it is an occasion that I am having a cocktail there’s a good chance that it’s Whisky based. I’m an Old Fashioned girl all day! I just enjoy the smooth, richness of a nicely balanced whisky or rye on a bit of ice. Just a bit!! I’ve been known for digging into my drinks if they’re made with too much ice and removing the excess ice before it ruins my alcohol, it’s a pet peeve of mine. I take my whisky seriously.
That being said, I don’t like all whisky. I’m very particular about my blends. So when Naked Grouse reached out to send me a bottle of their award winning whisky it was a bold move, very bold my friends.
I read up on Naked Grouse, made from three iconic whiskies: The Macallan, Highland Park and Glenrothes. Double Sherry Aged, that’s right, it’s the only blended malt whisky to double mature in first-fill sherry casks, with hints of chocolate and baked apples! They were speaking my language. My interest was piqued. Yes! Send me a bottle!
Like I said before, I’m an Old Fashioned girl typically but along with the bottle, Naked Grouse gifted me with everything I needed to make one of their signature cocktails, the Naked Raspberry Sour. With the ingredients already on hand I decided to give it a try before defaulting to pouring it over ice.
Y’all! This cocktail packs a punch! Don’t let the thought of there being Raspberry throw you off, this little guy may be fruit forward but it is a cocktail you shouldn’t feel ashamed about sipping on. The lemon and the raspberry mixed with the boozy whisky feel make this the perfect Fall cocktail. Serve them up at your next football watch party and impress your friends with this delicious, simple cocktail. Read on for the recipe.
