This delightful cocktail was brought to me courtesy of Chanston. I’m fairly certain that he wanted to try it out because he saw it online somewhere and knew we had everything we needed to make this except apple juice. Since we live much closer to the grocery store than we used to, he popped over and grabbed some.
It was pretty tasty on its own, but I added the turbinado sugar and apple slice garnishes to give it a little extra something. It was worth taking the extra time. I don’t think I’d make his one a summer staple, but this is a great cocktail for fall.
