Brady's Yacht Club is making the Bradyscillin (a riff on the Penicillin) for The Santa Cruz Waves Cocktail Week.

We are inspired by the Penicillin cocktail, which traditionally features fresh lemon juice, honey ginger syrup, and scotch whiskey served on the rocks with another really smoky scotch as a floater, like Laphroig. This cocktail was invented in 2005 by a New York Bartender named Sam Ross but has rapidly established itself as a great cocktail. We took his base recipe and made it a little more California and a lot more Brady’s.
We like to make a drink our own at Brady’s, hence the Bradyscillin name. We especially love Irish Whiskey, so we swapped out the blended scotch base with delicious Jameson in this recipe. We also have been drinking and enjoying a lot of Mezcal. We use Vida Mezcal in place of the smoky scotch as a float. These flavors go great with our ginger honey simple and the fresh lemon, but it is a little bit lighter, more Californian, than its New York inspiration.
We make the honey and ginger simple syrup ourselves. The honey and ginger are warmer, spicier and slightly less cloying than a traditional simple syrup. We use fresh lemon juice and Jameson, which mixes so well with those flavors. The cocktail is a great balance of ginger spice, bright lemon, sour and sweet, with the smoke pulling through. Then we top it with a small float of Mezcal. It gives a smoky kick that goes great with the ginger and citrus and veers away from the straight smoky peat flavors of those big smoky scotches. We have been serving it on the rocks.
