“When I was building this cocktail, I wanted to add a smoky layer to play well with the leathery notes of the whisky and evoke the peaty character of single-malt Scotch. The solution? A lightly charred rosemary sprig. Not only does it look festive, it levels out the sweetness of the honey and the tart zing of the lemon. Cheers!” — Étienne Marquis, RICARDO chef and recipe developer
