Time to make: 5 minutesServes: 1
The Rob Roy, a Scotch variation on the Manhattan, takes its name from the infamous Scottish rebel Rob Roy MacGregor. Use Johnnie Walker as the base whisky, add a touch of sweet vermouth and aromatic bitters, then stir the ingredients over ice, strain, and serve neat with a brandied cherry or orange peel. The result is balanced, slightly smoky, and rich — it’s a cocktail that should never play second fiddle to its more famous cousin.

- 1.5 oz. Johnnie Walker Black Label
- 1 oz. Sweet Vermouth
- 2 dashes Aromatic Bitters
- Orange Peel Twist
- Brandied Cherry Garnish
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass or cocktail shaker with ice.
