As delicious as single malt scotch can be neat or with a rock or two, sometimes you want to have it in a cocktail.
Highland Park, the Scotch with Viking soul, recently created this cocktail to celebrate the longest day of the year — summer solstice — and its homeland of Orkney. Created by Lauren McDougall, Cocktail Director and Beverage Manager at THE BAR at the Great Northern Food Hall, The Orklandia is perfect for these cooler nights.

- .5 oz rose hip syrup
