scotch [whisky] & butterscotch
when i was just a wee raynorling, i always thought that the grownup version of butterscotch would be my goto bar drink. imagine the existential bummer that i received when i found that there was no such thing (schnapps doesn’t count).
scotch whisky is named for its country of origin. butterscotch gets its name from its primary ingredient + scotch which means “to cut or score” (confer: hopscotch, a game involving a scored line on the ground).
