About
Similarly to the Manhattan, a rob roy can be made in a rocks or old-fashioned glass served over ice if your customer prefers.
A Dry Rob Roy is made with dry vermouth instead of sweet vermouth using the same proportions (i.e. 1 shot) and a lemon twist instead of the cherry for the garnish.
A Perfect Rob Roy is made with half dry & half sweet vermouth (1/2 shot of each), and both a lemon twist & cherry for the garnish.
