Glencadam 10 Year Old is the perfect base for a variety of cocktails. The Green Cadam was specially created by our Brand Ambassador Iain and is a tasty crossing of a classic gimlet and whisky sour, combining the freshness of basil with the fruity Glencadam spirit

Ingredients

• 2 x measures (50ml) Glencadam 10 Year Old Single Malt
• 1 x measure (25ml) Lime Juice
• 2/3 measure (17ml) Sugar Syrup
• 4/5 large basil leaves
• Method

Add the ingredients together the shaker base and muddle together for 20 seconds. Then add ice and shake for a further 20 seconds. Strain into a rocks glass topped with ice and garnish with a young stem of basil.  

Alternatives

• Muddle the cocktail for longer to extract more flecks of green for the cocktail
• Double strain if you do not wish to have basil pieces in the drink (Iain does like a bit of basil in his drink!)

Slainte!

The excellent and very independent vlogger Ralfy Mitchell has just reviewed Glencadam 13 Year Old. 

As with Ralfy's usual reviews this is as educational as it is entertaining and well worth a watch to get a great insight into Glencadam.
