Drambuie creams recipe
information
Be careful not to whip the cream too stiffly otherwise the dessert may become too thick when the other ingredients are added.
This is an unusual adaptation of the famous Scottish drink Atholl Brose, which is made from Scotch whisky, cream and oatmeal.
Drambuie is a famous Scottish liqueur, based on the finest Scotch whisky. The name Drambuie is derived from the Gaelic an dram buideach: 'the drink that satisfies'. The secret recipe is alleged to have been given to the Mackinnon family by Bonnie Prince Charlie in return for saving his life.
