Cocktail Recipe - Cola Stingray

When I was a kid, the coolest car I ever wanted was a purple Corvette Stingray.  This is what I thought the the Batmobile of the day should look like.



On New Year's Day, I was looking for a suitable cocktail to watch football games whilst staying awake after not getting enough sleep. That meant a recipe involving Coca Cola (sorry, Pepsi fans, only Coke goes with my booze).  Here is what I came up with:

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz. Crown Royal (or suitable Whiskey)
  • 1 oz. Galliano
  • 4 oz. Coca Cola
Mix ingredients over ice, garnish with lime.  

The name comes from an older recipe for a Golden Stingray which is simply Bourbon and Galliano mixed over ice.
