Our first cocktail we made with Teeling Whiskey is The Teeling Tipperary. Allegedly, The Tipperary cocktail was first featured in the 1917 book, Recipes for Mixed Drinks, written by Hugo R. Ensslin. It’s said that the guest who asked for a drink was humming ‘It’s a Long Way to Tipperary’, which was the song for homesick Irish soldiers in WW1. Therefore, it’s only suiting that this cocktail features Irish whiskey. The Teeling Tipperary is a rich and slightly sweet cocktail, with the green chartreuse bringing some herbal notes.
The Teeling Tipperary’s difficulty rating was 2/10. The process is very simple and the recipe only includes three ingredients.
Traditionally served in a coupe, we decided to break the norm and serve it in a brandy glass. The Teeling Tipperary is a rich dark chestnut colour, with a hint of emerald in certain lights due to the green chartreuse. We expressed the oils from the orange zest to give an added flavour on the nose, and garnished the glass with curled orange peel.
We also have more cocktail recipes featuring Teeling Whiskey. If you’re feeling adventurous you should try the Teeling Mai Tai. Want a classic? Try the Whiskey Sour. Need refreshment? Give the Mint Julep a go. All of these cocktail recipes are featured on the Tipsy with Tyreek blog.
