Bonded Apple Brandy, Grenadine, Lime

Ingredients:

  • 3 oz Lairds 100 Proof Apple Brandy
  • .75 oz lime juice
  • .75 oz house made grenadine

Instructions:

  • Shake and double strain
  • Garnish with a Lime peel (optional)

 

Notes:

  • Many recipes for the Jack Rose call for lemon juice instead of lime. Lime was in the original recipe, but either certainly work.
  • I find Laird's Apple Jack too sweet. Their 100 proof Apple Brandy is delicious, but if you can't find that, try another Apple Brandy over Apple Jack. 
  • To make grenadine syrup, mix equal parts POM Pomegranate juice and sugar in a saucepan. Boil while stirring, let cool, and voila, Grenadine. It's much better than any store bought that I've tried.
