APPLE CINNAMON OLD-FASHIONED
Created by Lisa Brazil, food and beverage manager at DEVIL'S THUMB RANCH RESORT'S RANCH HOUSE RESTAURANT & SALOON IN TABERNASH, COLORADO I SINCE 2021
"When growing up in the Rocky Mountains, hot cider was a staple for chilly nights and brought a comforting, warm sense of coziness and family. I wanted to create an adult version of this memory," says Lisa Brazil, whose "adult" ingredient of choice is Bourbon.
"Bourbon has such a unique sweetness with hints of vanilla, nutmeg, even caramel, which contrast and complement the sour of the apple." This drink is simple on the surface, but that means it leaves plenty of room for creativity. You can replace the apple cider with several slices of apple muddled in the glass. Or, you can skip the ice altogether and serve it warm by using hot cider.
UP YOUR GARNISH GAME
Brazil likes to freeze slices of apple in her ice cubes for serving this drink, and she suggests using a cinnamon stick as an aromatic stirrer.
2 teaspoons Cinnamon Simple Syrup (recipe below)
