My Scotch-whisky-inflected alternative to a Jack Rose.
Ingredients
- 1 oz. nonalcoholic apple cider or juice
- 1 oz. applejack
- 1 oz. smoky Scottish whisky (I like Bowmore 12)
- 1 scant teaspoon maple syrup
- 2 dashes bitters (I prefer Brooklyn Hemispherical Black Mission Fig, but Angostura works, too).
