What's in the drink Rusty Nail

A Rusty Nail is a cocktail made with two types of alcohol: Scotch whisky and Drambuie, which is a liqueur made with Scotch whisky, honey, and various herbs and spices. To make a Rusty Nail, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 2 ounces (60 ml) of Scotch whisky

  • 1 ounce (30 ml) of Drambuie

To prepare the cocktail, fill a mixing glass with ice and add the Scotch whisky and Drambuie. Stir the ingredients together until they are well combined and chilled, then strain the mixture into a rocks glass filled with ice. You can garnish the cocktail with a twist of lemon peel or a cherry, if desired.

The Rusty Nail is a strong and flavorful cocktail that is often enjoyed as an after-dinner drink. It has a sweet, smooth, and slightly spicy flavor, thanks to the honey and herbs in the Drambuie. The combination of Scotch whisky and Drambuie makes for a potent drink, so it is important to drink it responsibly.
