Origins of the Cutty Rickey Cocktail
The Cutty Rickey cocktail is a variation of the classic Gin Rickey, which was created in Washington D.C. in the late 19th century. The original Gin Rickey was made with gin, lime juice, and soda water, but over time variations using different spirits emerged.
Cutty Sark Scotch whisky was first introduced in 1923 by Berry Bros & Rudd as a lighter alternative to traditional Scottish whiskies. The name "Cutty Sark" comes from the famous clipper ship that once sailed between Britain and China during the tea trade era.
