The Story Behind The Wildest Red Head
This Scotch cocktail from bartender Meaghan Dorman of the Raines Law Room at the William in New York City is a lighter take on a Whiskey Sour but just as festive for the holiday season.
Comforting with a rich body, the Wildest Red Head combines just half an ounce of blended Scotch with allspice dram, lemon juice, and honey syrup. It’s all topped off with a Cherry Heering float, which provides just the right amount of sweet-tart complexity. “We love to say this drink tastes like a hug,” Dorman says.
