Atholl Brose with a Difference
Atholl Brose was traditionally drunk on Burns Night in Scotland and used to sort the men from the boys! This variation of the traditionally recipe retains the oatmeal to make a cranachan type pudding to be enjoyed by all.
Ingredients
- 3 fl oz Demijohn's Finest Blended Scotch Whisky 40%
- 1/2 pint of double cream
- 2oz pinhead oatmeal, toasted
- 3 tbsp clear honey
Preparation
Whip the double cream until stiff, then gently stir in the toasted pinhead oatmeal and honey. Chill and just before serving, mix in the Demijohn’s Finest Blended Scotch Whisky 40%.
Anything else I should know?
The name Atholl Brose is supposed to derive from the tale of the Duke of Atholl's capture of his enemy, the Earl of Ross, in 1475. The Duke was supposed to have filled a well, from which the Earl liked to drink, with this magical potion. Ross drank deeply and was captured.
