Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Make honey syrup (if not ready)

Combine equal parts honey and hot water (for example 1/4 cup honey + 1/4 cup hot water). Stir until honey dissolves completely. Cool before using. Makes more than needed; store refrigerated.

2

Build and mix

Add bourbon, fresh lemon juice, honey syrup, and Angostura bitters to a mixing glass or cocktail shaker with a couple of large ice cubes. Stir briskly for about 15 seconds (or shake briefly if you prefer a slightly frothier texture) to chill and dilute.

3

Prepare glass

Fill a rocks glass or short highball with fresh large ice cubes (3 large cubes).

4

Combine with cider

Strain the bourbon mixture over the prepared glass with ice. Top gently with 6 oz dry hard cider, pouring slowly to preserve carbonation. Give the drink one gentle stir (2–3 rotations) to integrate.

5

Garnish and serve

Thread an apple slice onto the rim or float it on top and optionally tuck a cinnamon stick into the glass. Serve immediately.
