Canadian whiskey combines with the orange flavor of curaçao, lemon juice and a hint of Angostura bitters for a Canadian Cocktail. This drink can either be shaken with cracked ice and strained or blended into a smoothie. Either way, it's a wonderful twist of flavor, but I do recommend using orange curacao (or triple sec) as the blue variety makes a mucky looking, semi-unappetizing cocktail. Skip the lemon juice and you have a Marlene Dietrich Cocktail

Embarrassed by leftover canadian whiskey?, Member danno_up

Ever had a party and bought Canadian whiskey? You know you have a friend that likes it... THIS is the way to drink it respectably. The Marlene Dietrich variant is next on my agenda (yes, we have quite a bit to polish off)!
