The Glenlivet is a stand alone neat pour. While writing new cocktail recipes I didn't to alter the taste or craft behind it, but rather enhance. Here are three simple Glenlivet cocktails to enjoy this spring.
Stirred and infused... like the liquor itself, a fancy name will take away from the cocktail
2 oz Glenlivet
1 slice dehydrated orange
Pour Glenlivet over ice and stir until the glass is frosted on the outside. Pour into a coupe without the ice. Place the dehydrated orange on top and let set to infuse. The concentration of orange will begin to seep into the cold Glenlivet.
Enjoy!
Hot Tea-dy (play on the Hot Toddy)
1 earl grey tea bag
1 teaspoon honey
6 oz hot water
2 oz Glenlivet
Infuse tea bag in mug for 1 minute. Add the honey, stir to dissolve. Add Glenlivet and enjoy!
Great for sore throats or just a warm soothing drink on a cool spring day.

3 oz Glenlivet
