Using:
Midori, Melon Liqueur
Ingredients:
This
refreshing creation combines the fruity melon flavour
of Midori, with crisp apple juice, zesty lemon

(although I went for an old school martini glass) and garnished with a crunchy slice of apple.

This is a modern twist to the traditional whiskey sour,
using Auchentoshan 12 Years Old Whiskey, making the iteration lighter and
slightly sweeter.
The Sour Scotsman
can be adapted to a Boston Sour with the addition of egg
whites - giving the cocktail a frothy head and smoother finish.
This can be served
in a small tumbler.
Method:
Step 1: Shake the ingredients with
ice, and strain
Step 2: Add a good dash of soda
water
Step 3: Decorate with a slice of orange
