About
The Scofflaw is one of my favorite classic cocktails, because it demonstrates the versatility of whiskey. This cocktail is a friendly way to introduce brown liquor to those who do not consider themselves whiskey people. It is always a hit: complex, well-balanced, spicy, sweet, dry, and tart. Perfect!

The Other Room, Lincoln, NE

2 oz Bulleit Rye

Directions
Combine all ingredients in a Boston Shaker glass. Fill glass with ice. Shake vigorously in Boston Shaker for 15 seconds. Double strain into coupe glass. Cut and trim a large orange peel. Cut a V into the peel to fix to coupe glass. (Orange peel oils expressed over the cocktail and around the rim before fixing the peel to the glass.)
