I discovered this drink at The Wayland in Manhattan's East Village. The What's Up, Doc? cocktail became popular across New York City in 2014, with numerous versions using different base spirits such as vodka, rye whiskey and grappa.

"Eh, What's up Doc?" is the catchphrase of Bugs Bunny, the nonchalant cartoon character who stars in the series of animated short films produced by Warner Bros.

I have to be honest - I only made this because I had a lot of carrots that needed using and wasn't at all sure I'd like it. Shouldn't have worried - the carrot juice works well with everything else to produce a delicious cocktail that you could swear is doing you some good!

This is delicious! We are making a large batch to take to our Thanksgiving gathering. We used Bolthouse Farms 100% Carrot Juice. We did up the cinnamon sugar syrup to 1/4 oz. (We made our own cinnamon simple syrup which I think might not be as potent as the store bought, so we needed a bit more.)
