Cameron's Kick

(Vintry Wine & Whiskey)

Ivan Mitankin at New York City's Vintry Wine & Whiskey adapted this winter tipple from the “Savoy Cocktail Book,” creating a smoothly sophisticated drink that combines the best qualities of whiskey and citrus. The caramel notes of the Scotch bring a sweet balance to the silk-like texture of the Orgeat and change the character of the malt just enough to match up perfectly with the fresh lemon.
