Hoot Mon Cocktail

The weather warmed up enough to enjoy our cocktail on the patio.

Since I have been making scotch cocktails, and they have been surprisingly good, I made another one tonight.  It is a 'Hoot Mon Cocktail' from page 98 of the Bartender's Guide.  It is less sweet than the Bobby Burns that I fixed last night (a very good drink) and was a better cocktail, at least to my taste.

 The recipe:
3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth (Dolin - I ran out of Martini & Rossi and Noilly Prat)
1 1/2 oz Scotch (Dewar's White Label)
1 teaspoon Benedictine
Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.  Twist a lemon peel and drop in glass.
