a cure for whatever ails you

we discovered the cocktail Penicillin at a laphroaig sponsored event last winter and now that's it's cold again our thoughts turned to a warming drink for a dark evening.  a little googling showed that i had none of the essential ingredients at hand but that's never stopped any project of mine.....here's an original recipe

https://www.thecocktailproject.com/drink-recipes/laphroaig-penicillin
  • 2 parts Teacher's® Highland Cream Scotch Whisky
  • 3/4 part fresh Lemon Juice
  • 3/4 part Honey Syrup
  • 3 pieces fresh Ginger, Sliced
  • 1/4 part Laphroaig® 10 Year Old Whisky
  • (optional for garnish) Candied Ginger
and here's my version, the Tetracycline

2 parts bourbon
3/4 part fresh lemon juice
3/4 part domaine de canton
1 piece crystallised ginger
1/4 part malt whisky

shake the first three ingredients vigorously on ice,  strain into a glass containing the ginger.  float the malt whisky on the surface.  serves one.
