OCTOBER FEATURE: Sweata Weatha
Can y’all believe it’s already October? 😱 We can’t either. But we’re all about celebrating this crisp fall air with a new tipple inspired by fireside evenings and North GA apple picking. And NO THIS IS NOT A PUMPKIN SPICE COCKTAIL. That is gross. #UnpopularOpinion Sorry, not sorry. 😜
SWEATA WEATHA
1.5 oz Rye
.5 oz Laird’s Apple Jack
.25 oz Thatcher’s Blood Orange
1.5 oz Apple Cider (We love Red Jacket – got it at Publix!)
.5 oz Fresh Lemon
.25 oz Rich Turbinado Syrup
3 dashes Angostura Bitters
DIRECTIONS: Shake all ingredients with ice until well-chilled, strain over a large block of ice in a shot glass. Garnish with some flamed cinnamon and a lemon wheel.
PRO TIP: This cocktail is GREAT over ice but also great warm! ❄️🔥 If you prefer it warm, add all ingredients and 1.25 oz water to a pot. Heat on stove over medium-low heat until warm (watch closely. do not boil otherwise you might as well say bye-bye to the booze and who likes that?)
🍂 From our kitchen to yours, cheers! 🥃
