About


This is one of the very few scotch cocktails- very high end cocktail. Lovely smokey flavors. The original blood and sand cocktail was made with Tropicana orange juice, super sweet, when it was first invented sugar at the time was a luxury so people loved sweet drinks.
This Daiquiri was made and served by Alex Day and Toby Cecchini during Drinking Lessons, a Nightschool event. November 23rd at the Sorrento Hotel.
