White Orchid

Flavour Pairings

This vanilla whisky cocktail combines the natural notes of apple and liquorice present in the scotch with sweet vanilla for added layers of complexity. Sit back and feel smug with a white orchid drink.

White Orchid Ingredients

50ml Ballantine’s 21 Year Old Whisky

500ml Crème de Vanilla
500ml Water
Ice Garnish: Small white orchid, ideally no larger than 2cm

How to make a White Orchid

Place the white orchid facing upwards in the ice moulds before filling with water and freezing overnight.
Create a flavoured liquid by adding crème de vanilla to water.
Place the cubes in the liquid or pour the liquid over the cubes to submerge and place back in the freezer for 24 hours.
Place a single ice cube in a tumbler glass and add 50ml of Ballantine’s 21 Year Old whisky.
Take your time to sip and savour. As the ice melts, it will accentuate the wonderful flavours of the whisky.
