From the bartender’s corner – Loch Lomond
Growing up in India as kids, Tintin was our evergreen comic hero. And there was his friend – Captain Haddock who had a sumptuous appetite for a particular scotch whisky called Loch Lomond!!! The dog Snowy was not above swiping a few licks here and there either!!
Way after the comics, there was a real life brand Loch Lomond scotch whisky that came of being.
This one however is a cocktail with the same name. Sure it has scotch whisky, but it also has blue curaçao, peach schnapps, lemon juice and cranberry juice.
I can visualize Captain Haddock sipping my cocktail and then upon realizing it has fruit juices in it, spitting it out forcefully with that inimitably “PFFFFFFT” fashion đŸ˜‰
