Seventy-eight years ago today, the 21st Amendment was ratified, officially ending Prohibition.
So, in honor of that, here is a shot of a pre-prohibition cocktail, a Rob Roy. The classic recipe consists of Scotch whiskey, sweet vermouth, and angostura bitters. And like a Manhattan, it can be served “dry” using dry vermouth or “perfect” using equal amounts of dry and sweet vermouth.
“Happy days are here again…” :-)
Love how the light hits the glass.
Thanks! I was having some fun with my off-camera flash on this one.
