Four Cocktails Featuring Johnnie Walker Red
s
I am excited to team up with Johnnie Walker Red…little did I know that their Red label can be mixed with other ingredients to create delicious cocktails. Since my husband likes to mix up drinks, he helped me create four cocktails featuring Johnnie Walker Red. 
Vanilla Cherry Smash
2 -3 tablespoons Luxardo Maraschino Cherries
1 tablespoon white sugar (omit if you prefer)
1 oz Johnnie Walker Red
2-3 oz club soda (depends on size of glass)
1/4 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 of a lemon, juiced
few drops of of angostura bitters
Add cherries to glass and muddle. In a cocktail shaker, add ice, Johnnie Walker Red, club soda, vanilla, lemon juice and bitters. Add to glass, stir and enjoy! We used these fun Monsieur and Madame glasses which are available at www.westelm.com.
Honey Lemon Whisky Cocktail
2 oz honey ginger syrup
1 oz Johnnie Walker Red
1/2 of a lemon, juiced
To make the honey ginger syrup, combine 1 cup honey, 1-2 tablespoons of freshly grated ginger and 1 cup water in a saucepan, boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Chill overnight and strain, discarding solids.
We like to use these ice spheres as they keep your drinks cold for a long time…add ice sphere to glass. Combine Johnnie Walker Red, lemon juice and honey ginger syrup in a cocktail shaker. Garnish with mint leaves and a lemon wedge.
Johnnie Ginger
1 oz Johnnie Walker Red
Ginger Beer
Fill glass with ice, add Johnnie Walker Red and top off with ginger beer. Add a splash of lemon juice if desired.
Blackberry Smash
Fresh blackberries
Fresh mint leaves
1 oz Johnnie Walker Red
1-2 oz simple syrup (to your taste)
Muddle black berries and mint leaves in a bowl, add to glass. Fill glass with crushed ice. Add 1 oz Johnnie Walker Red and then simple syrup. Garnish with mint leaves and blackberries.
Hope you enjoy serving these cocktails for your spring and summer parties…cheers!
Bisous,
Rebecca
