publish An invented cocktail I first started playing around with 2025-01-13 to demo at Haightwarming.

The recipe does not call for lemon dish soap dw

Flavor profile

Sweet, smoky, and tangs of holidaytime flavors from a tea blend (cinnamon, hibiscus, chamomile, chicory, apple and orange).

Ingredients

  • 4oz TJ’s spiced cider
  • 2oz bourbon
  • 1/4tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4tsp ground ginger
  • Garnish with any of the following:
    • 1 sprig rosemary
    • 1 apple slice
    • 1 cinnamon stick

*Originally also used 1oz water brewed celestial apple tea (basically 1/4 of a teabag) in a serving, but when preparing this for May Day I will try omitting this part because I don’t think a simpler flavor is better.

Preparation

  • Heat the cider first, but not to a boil.
  • Add bourbon, spices to taste.
  • Mix till the consistency is even.
  • Serve out of the pot!
