Whisky Cocktails: The Glen-Orangie by Jake Kim


It is not everyday that one gets to sample a signature whisky cocktail from an award-winning bartender from another country, and so SGwhisky couldn't help but get the recipe for this special cocktail by Jake Kim of the Off Bar. A refreshing beverage perfect for the hot climate of Singapore, this cocktail is easy to make and is an extremely accessible cocktail. It is also a perfect way to break somebody into the world of whisky as it does accentuate some flavours of the whisky without being too overpowering. Without further ado, here's the Glen-Orangie by Jake Kim.



Ingredients:
Juice of at least 1 orange
1 wedges of orange
Ginger Ale
1 1/4 Shot Glenmorangie 10YO (Kept in freezer till very very chilled)
Ice

Instructions
Pour juice of orange into a high-ball glass
Place 1/2 wedge of orange into glass with juice
Top up with ice
Pour 1 shot of Glenmorangie 10YO
Using other 1/2 wedge of orange, juice it into glass to coat the ice and then use it to rim the glass.
Top up with Ginger Ale
Pour remaining 1/4 shot of Glenmorangie 10 on top to allow for the scent of the whisky to be apparent

(One can put as much orange juice as one wants, but remember that the more non-alcoholic liquids that are put in, the less apparent the light Glenmorangie whisky becomes)

Try this one, it's definitely fit for a summer's day!
