At our recent Indian whisky tasting & food experience – “The Subcontinental Flavour Onslaught” – one of the treats we were presented with was a delightful customised cocktail, created especially by Carl at Dishoom, to showcase the flavour of the award-winning Indian whisky: Amrut Fusion.

After weeks of experimentation Carl came up with a concoction based on one of the most traditional of whisky cocktails, which complimented the spice, vanilla, honey and malt flavours of this innovative whisky – and yet the hibiscus and honey draw out the gentle smoke flavours as well.

Honeycomb Amrut Fusion Sour

10mL fresh lemon juice
10mL fresh lime juice
25mL hibiscus & peach liqueur
35mL Amrut Fusion
5mL honey
20mL egg white
10mL soda

Build ingredients and shake with cubed ice.  Fine strain over rocks.

Thanks Carl!  Awesome stuff.
