When Monday has given you a kicking, a sling seems highly appropriate. Looking for an ‘H’ and finding that I had all the pre requisites for this cheeky little number, I managed to get it made up before the Mrs got home!

Ingredients

Admittedly it was a “better” brand of Scotch requested but as I had some I thought what the hey. It says something about hte state of my drinks cabinet now that all I had to head out and get was the juice. Here it is in all it’s pre-mix glory!

• Bells Whiskey
• Galliano
• Apricot Brandy
• Apple Juice
• Cranberry Juice

Method

Dead simple, as are all the ones I go for - shake together with ice. I should have put more ice in the glass as it turns out.

The Result

Ah - isn’t it pretty! Lovely and fruity. The scotch is obviously the overpowering taste in the whole thing but the Galliano and other fruit-based accompaniments balance it out nicely. Fruity punch with a nice mellow Scoth after-taste. Would make again!
