Apple Jack Daiquiri

Apple Jack is America's original spirit and a delicious addition to any daiquiri. Apple Jack celebrates the local NY apple region and is often produced by cider-makers in the Hudson Valley. Inspired by the traditional pork and apple sauce pairing, we brought some in to experiment with. Chef Kelly "Shibumi" Jones, NYC chef turned Hudson Valley supper-club owner's sous vide heritage boston butt recipe is a perfect dish to pair with this cocktail to celebrate the iconic combination.

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Black Dirt Apple Jack Brandy
• 1 oz Owney's New York City Rum
• ½ oz Deep Mountain Maple Syrup
• ½ oz lime juice
• apple slices for garnish
• ice

Preparation:

In a cocktail shaker, combine apple jack brandy, rum, maple syrup, lime juice, and ice. Shake until well chilled. Strain into a coupe glass and garnish with apple slices.
