Rob Roy Drink

A Rob Roy is made with coke and maraschino cherries. this beverage is called a ROY RODGERS & was the "boy's" version of the oh so popular "girl's" version of the SHIRLEY TEMPLE. The history of this was that when parents went out to dinner in "those days" they started dinner with cocktails, then when dinner arrived they changed to another beverage, then after dinner they would reorder an alcoholic beverage such as a Grasshopper or a "Dessert" beverage, again since the "popular" actor/actress of the day were the afore mentioned one smart bartender turned the lowly 7-up or soda into a "child's beverage" for them to partake of the "cocktails" befor, during, after dinner.

In order to make a True Rob Roy Cocktail you will need the following Ingredients:

Scotch Sweet Vermouth Bitters Ice

Directions:

1. Stir 2 oz. Scotch and oz. Sweet Vermouth with Ice and bitters.

2. Strain into a cocktail glass.

3. Serve as you would a Manhattan (garnished with either a cherry or other traditional garnishes)
