Applejack Sour

For fans of the Sour, an APPLEJACK SOUR hits the mark for Thanksgiving, or for fall in general. Apple brandy (Laird’s Applejack) provides the distilled apple flavor, lemon the sour, and orange juice & maple syrup the sweetening. The resulting sweet & sour balance is punctuated with bitters and a topping of grated nutmeg.

Requirements: applejack (Laird’s preferred), lemon juice, orange juice, maple syrup, Angostura bitters, grated nutmeg for garnish

  • 2 oz. applejack
  • 3/4 oz. lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz. orange juice
  • 1/2 oz. maple syrup
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters
  • grated nutmeg for garnish

Add all ingredients except nutmeg to an ice-filled shaker. Shake to chill and strain into an ice-filled rocks glass. Sprinkle top with nutmeg.
