Whiskey on the Rocks cocktail

Whiskey on the Rocks Cocktail Recipe

Whiskey on the rocks is the simplest way to enjoy whiskey. Served over ice, usually in a short tumbler. This straightforward presentation slightly chills the spirit and can mellow its intensity as the ice melts, subtly opening up the flavors and aromas. Often chosen by those who appreciate the character of whiskey without mixers, it highlights the spirit’s complexity in its purest, most relaxed form.
