I kid. I kid.

Try having a glass of ice water near by and leave the ice out of the scotch. It was a change for me when I started not drinking something cold, especially having moved from beer. The ice water blast every once in a while did the trick. I still do this at times during the summer months. Note...don't chase the scotch with the ice water...this kind of defeats the purpose.
