interesting that the Blood and Sand from the Exclusive Cocktails From The Usher Hotel in 1936 is a rum drink and not scotch (and has MILK!) - i know the Savoy book from 1930 has scotch - going to have to try this one tonight

Stevekh, Here’s another version -i don’t have a clue where I got it but it’s a good drink.
Happy mixing
