Bright and citrus-driven, this tall cocktail balances tangy grapefruit and lime with a touch of apricot sweetness and orange liqueur; the Scotch adds a subtle smoky, malty warmth rather than dominating. Pale pink and served over crushed ice with a lime wedge, it’s light, refreshing, and an interesting way to showcase whisky in a summery citrus-forward format. Worth trying if you want a refreshing long drink that’s fruit-forward but with a complex, slightly smoky finish.
