Old Pal

If you’re a fan of smoky flavors, you’ll love the Mezcal Pal. This variation replaces the Scotch with mezcal, a type of tequila that is made by smoking the agave plant. The result is a cocktail that is rich and complex, with a hint of sweetness from the vermouth and a smoky finish from the mezcal.

The New Pal is a variation that swaps out the Scotch for bourbon. This gives the cocktail a sweeter, smoother flavor that is perfect for those who find the original Old Pal a bit too strong. The New Pal is a great option for those who are new to the world of whiskey cocktails.

The Boulevardier is a close cousin to the Old Pal, but it uses sweet vermouth instead of dry vermouth. This gives the cocktail a richer, more complex flavor that is perfect for sipping on a cold evening. The Boulevardier is a great option for those who enjoy the flavors of the Old Pal but want something a little bit different.

The Negroni is another classic cocktail that shares some of the same ingredients as the Old Pal. It uses gin instead of whiskey, but it also features Campari and sweet vermouth. The Negroni is a great option for those who want to explore the world of bitter cocktails.

The Old Fashioned is a classic cocktail that is similar to the Old Pal in many ways. It uses whiskey, bitters, and sugar, but it doesn’t feature Campari or vermouth. The Old Fashioned is a great option for those who want a simpler, more straightforward cocktail that still packs a punch.
