I'm honestly not sure how I came across this drink. Somewhere online, some rabbit trail down into the depths of the interwebs. But I'm glad I did. I'm not normally a scotch drinker, so I did have a pause, but the other ingredients definitely add a sweetness that I appreciate. Plus, this is an antique drink - dating back to around 1930! A nice way to celebrate the beginning of holiday vacation.
Blood and Sand Cocktail

¾ ounce blended Scotch

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with some ice. Shake just until blended, then serve in your choice of glass.
