Ingredients
- 2 ounces quality apple cider or juice
- Dash of angostura bitters
- ½ teaspoon brown sugar (see Notes)
- 2 ounces bourbon whiskey
- Ice , for serving
Optional garnishes
- Orange slice or twist
- Apple slices
- Luxardo maraschino cherries
- Cinnamon stick
Instructions
- In a lowball glass, combine the apple juice, bitters, and sugar. Swirl glass around until mixture is combined and sugar is dissolved.
- Add the ice and whiskey and give it a quick stir.
- Top with garnishes as desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Some readers have commented that extra sugar isn't needed. If you have a really nice flavorful apple cider, that may be plenty sweet enough and you can omit the brown sugar.
- This recipe can be doubled, tripled, etc. as needed. You can even prepare bulk drinks in a small pitcher and then pour over ice into individual glasses.
