Jack Rose

The JACK ROSE is a lost classic from the 1910’s that for no particular reason was pushed aside by time. But the smooth blend of applejack, lemon juice and grenadine earns it a place in the cocktail rotation. And with just three key ingredients, it’s a quick and easy drink to prepare.

Requirements: Laird’s Applejack brandy, grenadine, lemon juice, Peychaud’s bitters (optional), lemon twist

  • 2 oz. applejack brandy
  • 1/2 oz. grenadine
  • 3/4 oz. lemon juice
  • 1 dash Peychaud’s bitters
  • 1 lemon twist for garnish

Combine liquid ingredients into an ice-filled shaker. Shake for 15-20 seconds and strain into a coup or martini glass. Garnish with a lemon twist.

Comments: This sweet & tart mix over the mellow flavor of applejack brandy is as refreshing at the end of a fall apple-picking day as it is on a hot summer’s day. It presents itself beautifully at a cocktail or dinner party as well.
