Scotch Spring Blossom: The Easter Cocktail You Can’t Dodge

Easter 2025 calls for elegance, and the Scotch Spring Blossom is whiskey’s floral crown—a light, fruity mix that blooms with April 20’s spirit. Want a cocktail to elevate your holiday? Here’s the stunning recipe, with Scotch picks to make your Easter shine—no misses, just pure springtime glow.

Why the Scotch Spring Blossom Blooms for Easter

Scotch, per Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009—Scotland-made, 190 proof max, three years oak—offers malty or fruity notes that pair with Easter’s chocolate eggs and roasted veggies. Floral syrup and citrus scream spring—perfect for brunch or evening toasts. It’s whiskey’s Easter bouquet, refined yet festive.

Scotch Spring Blossom Recipe—Step by Step

  • Ingredients:
    • 2 oz blended Scotch (80-86 proof recommended)
    • 1 oz lavender syrup (1:1 sugar and water, steeped with dried lavender)
    • 3/4 oz orange juice
    • 2 oz tonic water
    • Ice
    • Orange twist garnish
  • Method:
    Stir Scotch, lavender syrup, and orange juice with ice for 20 seconds, strain into an ice-filled wine glass, top with tonic water, and garnish with an orange twist. Sip and bloom—it’s Easter’s floral spark.
  • Why It Works: Scotch’s malt lifts lavender’s bloom, orange adds zest, and tonic keeps it light—ideal for holiday sweets.

Scotch Picks for Your 2025 Easter

  • Johnnie Walker Black Label (80 proof, $35-$45): Subtle malt pairs with lavender, smooth for brunch.
  • Famous Grouse (80 proof, $20-$30): Light fruitiness complements orange, budget-friendly for Easter.

How to Sip It on Easter

Serve in a wine glass for elegance—its floral fizz suits April 20’s vibe. Pair with chocolate or carrots—Scotch’s 80-86 proof, per regulations, balances sweets. For a crowd, pre-mix sans tonic. Every sip’s a holiday lift—pure malt and oak, no additives.
