BLOOD AND SAND COCKTAIL Recipe

The Blood and Sand cocktail is an aromatic, fruity cocktail from the 1930s. The short drink is – alongside Rusty Nail and the Manhattan variants Rob Roy and Bobby Burns – one of the very few well-known mixed drinks that are made with Scotch Whisky. It is not known exactly when the cocktail was created, but it is certain that the name refers to the 1922 silent film of the same name.
