Why we call butter scotch as butter scotch?!


Question:

Why we call butter scotch as butter scotch?


Answers:
While many recipes reference 'butterscotch' as similar or identical to caramel or a caramel sauce, some recipes contain both butter and scotch whisky in the recipe. The scotch gives the confection or sauce a characteristic flavor that was common 50 years ago but has been replaced with a milder flavor profile. For best results, use a strongly flavored Scotch whisky that lacks smoky flavors.

Because the flavor butterscotch was originally made by combining butter, scotch whisky, and sugar.
