Cocktail

2 oz Cinnamon whisky (e.g., Fireball)3 oz Apple cider (unfiltered preferred)1/2 oz Fresh lemon juice1/2 oz Honey syrup (1:1 honey to hot water)2 dashes Angostura bitters1 to taste Ice (large cubes or crushed)1 each Garnish: apple slice or cinnamon stick

Method

Cocktail

Prepare honey syrup

If you don't have honey syrup ready, combine equal parts honey and hot water (for this recipe use 0.5 oz honey and 0.5 oz hot water), stir until fully combined and cool briefly. Measure 0.5 oz for the drink.

Build and shake

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add 2 oz cinnamon whisky, 3 oz apple cider, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz honey syrup, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters. Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until well chilled.

Strain and serve

Fill a rocks glass with fresh ice (one large cube or crushed depending on preference). Double-strain the shaken mixture into the glass to remove small ice chips and pulp.

Garnish

Garnish with an apple slice on the rim or a cinnamon stick placed in the glass. Optionally express a lemon peel over the drink for added citrus aroma before discarding.

Serve immediately while cold. Enjoy responsibly.
