If you're looking for a connection to the Rat Pack of the 1960s, you can't do better than with a Rusty Nail. This drink was, for a long time, the last word in sophistication, and it's still a suave pick-me-up today. It's simple, easy to make, and requires just two ingredients: Scotch and Drambuie.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz. Scotch whisky
  • 3/4 oz. Drambuie
  • Lemon peel garnish

Instructions

  • Pour the scotch and Drambuie into a mixing glass with ice
  • Stir until thoroughly chilled
  • Strain into a rocks glass with one ice cube
  • Garnish with a lemon peel
