While some beverages are light and refreshing, others are a bit on the heavier side and they tend to warm us up rather than cool us down. It’s not just about the type of beverage that you wish to serve, but also how you mix it up. Here are some winter whisky ideas to treat yourself and your guests.<\/a><\/p>\n

Irish Coffee<\/h2>\n

Irish coffee is one of the most popular winter whisky drinks. The key is to use a real Irish whisky and make sure that you whip the cream until it just starts to stiffen but is not yet too firm. Dissolve your sugar in the whisky before adding your hot coffee and topping with cream.<\/p>\n

Suburban<\/h2>\n

If you are looking for a classy way of serving that winter whisky beverage, you should try a suburban. Served in a Martini glass, this cocktail calls for rye whisky, dark run and two types of bitters.<\/p>\n

Manhattan<\/h2>\n

This is a popular and very well-known whisky cocktail. It is perfect for every event including Christmas dinner or even New Year’s Eve. This is certainly a cocktail that every aspiring barman needs to know how to make.<\/p>\n

Millionaire<\/h2>\n

Of all the winter whisky cocktails, this one certainly lives up to its name. Combining rye whisky, grenadine, Grand Marnier and egg whites, this is a cocktail that will make you feel like a million bucks!<\/p>\n

Shot time!<\/h2>\n

No drinks menu would be complete without some shots! Whisky is an important ingredient in several shots and you can choose to either throw them back with a buddy or sip slowly to enjoy. A ‘suitcase’ consists of two shots. One shot of Jack Daniels and another of passion fruit cordial. You pop them both in your mouth, swirl and swallow. If you prefer to savour that fine flavour, consider whisky on the rocks.<\/p>\n

These are some of the best winter whisky ideas. Some are more complex than others but they are worth trying before your planned event. Test some cocktail recipes and invite your partner or a friend to test along with you so that they can provide some additional feedback before you narrow down your choices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
