So what to mix with Applejack

Post by UnkleLemmy »

So I bought some Applejack last night (America's booze!).
I drank sopme straight and some with Coke but I know there has to be soemthing better to mix it with.
Any suggestions.

I always drank it straight or with a splash of water like Bourbon, but I found a few recipes in Tom Bullock's Pre-Prohibition Cocktails.

Applejack Cocktail:
Simple Syrup
Raspberry Syrup
Shake over ice

Applejack Fix:
Simple Syrup
Lemon Juice
Curacao
any fruit syrup
Serve over ice

Applejack Sour:
Simple Syrup
Lemon or lime Juice

50/50 Applejack and Old Overholt. The George Washington Exacta.
The man who intoxicates himself on bad whisky is sometimes moved to kill his wife and set his house on fire, but the victim of applejack is capable of blowing up a whole town with dynamite and of reciting original poetry to every surviving inhabitant.

Fermented apples (cider) that is then distilled. The French version, which is pretty damn good, is called "Calvados". Think of it as Apple Brandy. "Jacking", if I'm not mistaken, refers to freeze distillation, thus the name.
