The Grumpy Dingo Radio Rock & Rye Cocktail

We love a cocktail with some history. The Rock & Rye cocktail originated in the 19th century. Bartenders needed to tame the bite of young rye whiskey and they did it with a lot of...wait for it...sugar! Actual rock candy. The recipe has changed over the years but the Rock & Rye remains a favorite among cocktail lovers with a sweet tooth. Call up your dentist & let's get mixin'!
