The Vodka Rob Roy is a modern twist on the classic Rob Roy cocktail, substituting Scotch whisky with vodka, resulting in a smoother and cleaner flavor profile. This cocktail is perfect for vodka lovers looking to enjoy a sophisticated drink with a hint of sweetness from the vermouth.
Pour the vodka and sweet vermouth into the mixing glass.
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the mixture.
Stir the mixture gently with a bar spoon for about 30 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients thoroughly.
Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.
Garnish with a maraschino cherry on a cocktail pick.
Notes
For an extra touch, consider using flavored vodka or experimenting with different types of vermouth. The Vodka Rob Roy can be served straight up or on the rocks, depending on personal preference.
