A quick one this week - I'm excited to bring you a fresh fall-worthy cocktail from the Bourbony bar: the Applewood Union.
Like a fall evening without the PSL energy.
Think: bourbon meets Calvados in a cozy orchard ritual. Rich boiled apple cider gives it unapologetic apple character, while sweet birch and toasted hickory bitters keep it grounded. A torched apple wheel dusted with cinnamon on top adds that caramel-baked aroma you’ll drink in before you take your first sip.
Whether you’re serving in small batches or as the signature cocktail at your next gathering, it’s simple, shows off season, and feels elevated without being pretentious.
