Witching Hour: Bourbon Cider Cocktail
Ingredients
-
Apple Cider - Recommendation: Spiced Apple Cider from Trader Joes
-
Ginger Beer or Ginger Ale
-
Recommendation: Fever Tree ginger beer is a notably sustainable brand that sources their ginger in ethical ways, helps their supply chain partners fight malaria, and never utilizes PET packaging. Their ginger beer provides a more elevated feel but ginger ale is a perfect swap!
-
Lemon Juice
-
Bourbon: TJ's Sour Mash Tennessee Bourbon Whiskey or Smoked Maple Bourbon from Knob Creek
-
Garnish: Apple Slice, Cinnamon Stick, and Thyme or Rosemary Sprig for an olfactory sensation kick
Directions
-
Fill a shaker with ice and mix 6oz Apple Cider, 2 oz of ginger beer, 1.5 oz or to your preference of Bourbon, a splash of lemon juice. Shake Well for 10 seconds.
-
Uncover Shaker and strain into a glass with fresh ice. Mason Jars work best for this drink.
-
Finish with an apple slice, cinnamon stick, and a sprig of thyme.

Tip: If you are looking to make mocktails- please forgo the bourbon! No need to replace it with anything
