I always thought a Rob Roy was made with scotch. Would it be the same recipe as the one with whiskey? I realize this is probably a silly question and I still need to ask. Thanks, cAROL lAWRENCE
Hey Carol-
Thanks for the question. You’re right a Rob Roy is usually made with Scotch but this nontraditional recipe calls for an American single malt. Try it both ways and let us know which one you prefer.
Cheers!
