MAKER'S® PENICILLIN
MADE WITH MAKER'S MARK®
A bit like a “cold toddy,” the Penicillin cocktail brings together the comforting flavors of lemon and honey, a touch of smoke from scotch, a zing of ginger and, of course, Maker’s Mark®.

About the
Maker's® Penicillin
A tale of two whiskies, the Penicillin cocktail opens with aromas of smoke and peat and then gives way to a balanced sweetness and a pop of spice. Maker’s®, Scotch, ginger, honey and lemon recall the flavors of warm drinks, but in thie case, are best served on the rocks.
