Atholl Brose
Atholl Brose is a Scottish drink obtained by mixing oatmeal brose, honey, whisky, and sometimes cream. When made with cream, the drink is similar to Baileys Irish Cream. Atholl Brose has also become an alternative name for the dessert Cranachan, which uses similar ingredients.
Ingredients
900g Oats
1200ml water
450ml cream
300ml Whiskey
4 TBS honey or to taste
How to make the Scottish beverage
Sleep oats in water for two days
Strain through a cloth which makes 600ml
Add cream, whiskey and honey, or more of you need it sweeter. Store in the fridge, and you need to use it all because it doesn’t keep because of the cream. Obviously you can make less, but then again – who would want less?
