Grant’s Redfi re Frosted Grant’s
Red is an important colour for William
Grant. It is the predominant colour of
the family clan tartan and the colours are
brought to life in this drink. The smooth
gold of Grant’s Family Reserve and the
bitter red of the cherry brandy clash,
forming trickles of red fire to create a
drink that’s as every bit of powerful as
its name.
Ingredients
50ml Grant’s
Dash of cherry brandy
10ml tonic
Garnish with sage leaf
Method
Fill a highball glass with crushed ice.
Add Grant’s Family Reserve and top up
with tonic. Drizzle the cherry brandy
over the top. Garnish with one fresh
sage leaf (optional).

As beautiful as a pale winter sunset, frosted
Grant’s is not to be underestimated. Like Scotland
in December, it’s the cold that hits you first,
instantly softened by the gentle creaminess of
the cacao and the smoothness of Grant’s Family
Reserve. It reminds us of the time all the staff at
the Girvan Distillery were snowed in overnight.
But that’s another story.
Ingredients
50ml Grant’s
50ml Crème de Cacao
Garnish with a vanilla pod
Method:
Fill a tumbler with crushed ice. Stir the Grant’s
Family Reserve and Crème de Cacao over ice.
Pour. Garnish with a vanilla pod.
