Steps

  1. 1
    Fill a rocks glass with one large ice cube or several solid cubes.
  2. 2
    Pour the Scotch and Drambuie directly over the ice.
  3. 3
    Adjust to taste: the classic is 2:1, but a heavily peated Scotch takes less Drambuie and a light blend takes more.
  4. 4
    Stir gently for 15 seconds to chill and marry.
  5. 5
    Express a lemon twist over the surface and drop it in.
