Steps
Steps
- 1Make the honey-ginger syrup: simmer the honey, water and fresh ginger over a low heat for 5 minutes, then steep for an hour and strain. It makes more than one drink needs; the rest keeps a week in the fridge.
- 2Shake the blended Scotch, lemon juice and 22.5 ml of the honey-ginger syrup with ice for 10 seconds.
- 3Strain into a rocks glass over one large ice cube.
- 4Float the Islay malt on the surface by pouring it slowly over the back of a bar spoon. It should sit on top, so the smoke hits the nose before the drink hits the tongue.
- 5Garnish with a piece of candied ginger.
