Scofflaw
The Scofflaw is a bold, dry cocktail with a rebellious spirit that hails from the Prohibition era, where it was named after those who defied the laws of the time—the scofflaws. This drink combines bourbon, dry vermouth, and a dash of grenadine, along with a splash of lemon juice and a touch of orange bitters, creating a perfectly balanced cocktail that’s both spicy and refreshing. The grenadine adds a hint of sweetness, while the dry vermouth keeps it crisp and smooth, making this drink as smooth as it is defiant.
