Scottish Blue

Post by Hardcore Stig »

A simple (very) shot I found a few nights back.....

1 part Blue Curacao
1 part Irn Bru

Tastes nice, has a fun colour so good to set up for the start of a party, a "welcome in" drink.

I've tried toughening it up but Whiskey is a bad addition, gin takes some of the sweetness off and vodka just seems it bit pointless.

Cheers! Will have to try that sometime.

Never really mixed Irn Bru with anything besides vodka. I even prefer coffee to Irn Bru in the morning.

It's very difficult to get Irn Bru in bars south of the border, but will try it sometime if I can get it.

There isn't really anything that you can substitute instead of Irn Bru...

I'm hatching a business plan for exporting Bru to places which sadly can't get it - get your orders in now! ;)
Seriously though, I have a long-standing deal with a mate in the US who sends me crates of Mountain Dew, I unpack the cans, pack Irn Bru cans into the box, and send it back. How the rest of the world lives without this alternative to Coke is beyond me...
